Vijay Shankar Ruled Out of World Cup

Birmingham: In a blow to the Indian team going into the business end, all-rounder Vijay Shankar has been ruled out of the World Cup with a toe injury. While the blow at the nets off Jasprit Bumrah hadn’t looked very serious to start with, it looks to have been aggravated. Speaking to IANS, sources in the know of developments said Vijay Shankar has been ruled out of the ongoing tournament and the BCCI may now make a formal request to the ICC to call in a replacement. Right-handed batsman from Karnataka Mayank Agarwal is likely to be named as Vijay Shankar’s replacement. IANS
