India fast bowler Prasidh Krishna will not play in the third and final ODI against West Indies on October 3 in Mullanpur. He suffered a left hamstring injury during the second ODI in Guwahati. Krishna bowled five overs in the match and conceded 45 runs. He also dismissed Keacy Carty before leaving the field in the 31st over after picking up the injury.
The Karnataka pacer has now returned to Bengaluru. He could miss the first round of the Ranji Trophy as well. Krishna is expected to report to the BCCI Centre of Excellence for further treatment and recovery. Anshul Kamboj has been added to India’s squad as his replacement for the final ODI. Kamboj, on the other hand, has been withdrawn from the India A side currently playing Australia A in Puducherry.

Anshul Kamboj has left the Australia A squad and joined India in Mullanpur. He took three wickets in the first innings of both unofficial Tests but bowled only two overs in the latest second innings. Kamboj has played one Test for India and has 56 wickets in 35 List A matches.
Meanwhile, Naman Dhir has replaced Washington Sundar in India’s squad for the five-match T20I series against West Indies. Sundar will return to domestic cricket to prepare for the Test series against New Zealand.
