As per the reports from the Times of India, Harshit Rana is set to join the side ahead of the third and final ODI. The Delhi-based pacer will be joining the team at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, where the last ODI is scheduled to take place. Harshit has been out for several months after picking up an injury during the warm-up match against South Africa ahead of the T20 World Cup 2026.
“The team management offered Harshit the opportunity to join the team earlier in the series, but it was decided that he needed more practice at the CoE. He has been bowling nine to ten overs every day and has been able to maintain his intensity. He is also working very hard on his batting. He will most likely be officially cleared by the CoE on June 17 and will travel to Chennai immediately,” a source told the Times of India.
