The team management has chosen to replace Hardik with pacer Prasidh Krishna as the latter was unable to finish his recuperation in a timely manner. The personnel change in the squad was authorized on Saturday by the Event Technical Committee of the event.

Prasidh Krishna will therefore be qualified to participate in the Men in Blue’s upcoming match against South Africa, should they choose to do so.

Team India benched fellow all-rounder Shardul Thakur in Hardik Pandya’s absence, and by playing specialists Mohammed Shami and Suryakumar Yadav, they jeopardized their batting depth.

However, the change has worked wonders for the side, with Suryakumar being among the runs, coming down the order after the in-form top order has wreaked havoc.

Shami, on the other hand, has taken 14 wickets in three matches and has forged a deadly trio with fellow pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj.
