Auqib Nabi likely to replace Jasprit Bumrah for Sri Lanka Tests

Premier pacer Jasprit Bumrah is set to miss India's two-Test tour of Sri Lanka as he is yet to recover from his knee injury.

Jammu and Kashmir seamer Auqib Nabi is all set to earn his maiden call-up to the national team.

Nabi will be



the third player after Parvez Rasool and Umran Malik to get a senior national call-up. Rasool and Malik were summoned in white ball set-up.

“Bumrah is not fit and Auqib Nabi has been approved as his replacement,” a BCCI source informed PTI.
