While talking to the news agency PTI, a BCCI official said that Deepak has sustained a twisted ankle but it's not too serious but a few days of rest might be advisable.


The report further states that as of now, Bumrah's replacement in the T20 World Cup squad is Mohammed Shami, who is slowly and surely getting match-fit and is expected to fly to Australia within the next three to four days.

With pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah already ruled out of World Cup, Chahar's latest injury comes as a major scare for team India's preparations for the marquee event given he is named as a standby.
