Teenager Sooryavanshi Included In India Squad For Afghanistan T20s


(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) Teenager Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was named in India's squad for the T20 series against Afghanistan on Tuesday after responding to a disappointing debut series in England with two half-centuries against Zimbabwe in July.

Fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah was also named in the squad, subject to fitness, having been sidelined by a knee injury and missing the test series in Sri Lanka last month.
