After a lengthy period of out the game due to injury, the Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah joined the Indian squad ahead of team’s first T20I against Sri Lanka, which is slated to be held on Sunday at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati.
The two teams will play three T20Is as India look to continue their winning streak against Sri Lanka in the shortest format and the start the season with a big bang.
Bumrah has been out of action ever since the West Indies tour in August-September last year but after regaining full fitness, he was named in the T20I squad against Sri Lanka.
