Indian allrounder Shivam Dube has been ruled out of the upcoming T20I series against Bangladesh due to a back injury. It comes as a significant blow to the Indian squad, as Dube has been a key player in the format.

In light of Dube’s absence, Tilak Varma has been named as his replacement for the T20I series. Varma, who has made a name for himself in the shortest format, brings a lot of talent. So far, Tilak Varma has played 16 T20Is. He last featured for India against Afghanistan in a T20I earlier this year in January in Mohali. The first T20I against Bangladesh will be played in Gwalior on Sunday. 

India squad: Suryakumar Yadav (capt), Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson (wk), Rinku Singh, Hardik Pandya, Riyan Parag, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakaravarthy, JItesh Sharma (wk), Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana, Mayank Yadav, Tilak Varma
