Indian all-rounder Vijay Shankar was on Monday July 01,2019 ruled out of the 20019 CWC due to Toe Injury and
is likely to be replaced by Mayank Agarwal. Karnataka opener Agarwal,
28, who made his Test debut against Australia last year, has not yet
played in the ODI format.
“Vijay got hit on the toe by a Jasprit Bumrah delivery once again. His situation is not great and he won’t be able to take part in the tournament. He is going back home,” a a senior BCCI official told
Vijay Shankar was left out of India’s last game against England due to the same toe injury. Rishabh Pant was handed his World Cup debut, who batted at No. 4 and scored 32 runs on Sunday.
The Indian team management is likely to ask for Mayank Agarwal as replacement since he is an opener and also it might give KL Rahul a chance to get back to the No.4 position in case Rishabh Pant fails in the next two games
It is expected that Agarwal’s name will be approved by the ICC’s tournament technical committee and the player will arrive in Birmingham and travel to Leeds subsequently.
