Mukesh Kumar for India (X.com)
Deepak Chahar, known for his exploits with the new ball has been included in the Indian squad ahead of the third T20I in the place of Mukesh Kumar who has left the team because of his marriage.
Mukesh Kumar has not travelled to Guwahati with the Indian team and is replaced by Deepak Chahar who last played a T20I game for India back in 2022. However, Chahar is not likely to get a game as Avesh Khan who sat on the bench in the opening two T20Is, is most likely to fit into the XI.
Mukesh Kumar picked up just one wicket in two games, but has been very impressive at the death, delivering some pin-point yorkers. His news of marriage, though, was kept away from the eyes of media and it only came forward when Deepak Chahar was seen practicing before the game. Mukesh Kumar has made rapid strides in international cricket in recent times and made his debut in all three formats for India on the Caribbean tour, just before the Asia Cup.
Mukesh, though, will be available for the fourth T20I but Deepak Chahar will continue to be part of the rest of the series.
