Four players in the squad for the Afghanistan series are subject to fitness. India also have a busy schedule, including a one-off T20I against Japan and the Asian Games following the Afghan series. The BCCI will need to manage player workloads carefully as they recover from injuries and work towards full fitness.
Harshit Rana had also been picked for India’s Asian Games squad, but the injury could delay his return further. Harshit Rana missed the T20 World Cup and IPL 2026 after an earlier injury before returning during the Afghanistan ODI series.
“He has not yet fully recovered from his hamstring injury. He will need more time,” a BCCI source said.
Nitish Kumar Reddy Cleared to Join India Squad
Reddy has spent close to one and a half months at the CoE. He played one match last week and two more this week as part of his fitness assessment, with the medical team understood to be satisfied with his progress.
Reddy has also worked on his bowling during his recovery and has reportedly added some pace. He last played an international match during the ODI series against Afghanistan in June, when he aggravated his left quadriceps injury after initially picking up the problem while bowling in the first ODI in Dharamsala.
Jasprit Bumrah’s Afghanistan Return Remains on Track
Bumrah missed India’s Test tour of Sri Lanka after failing to recover in time. He is now expected to undergo a fitness test at the CoE on Thursday before joining the squad in Delhi.
Washington Sundar is the fourth player whose selection for the Afghanistan T20Is remains subject to fitness clearance. The all-rounder is also likely to receive permission to play in the series.
