India are set to lock horns with South Africa in a five-match T20I series scheduled to begin on 9th June 2022 in Delhi. The home side suffered a blow ahead of the start of the fixtures after stand-in captain KL Rahul and spinner Kuldeep Yadav were ruled out.
Rahul will miss out owing to a right groin injury while Kuldeep was hit on his right hand while batting in the nets.
The wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant who was earlier appointed Rahul’s deputy will now lead the team and all-rounder Hardik Pandya will be the vice-captain.
“Team India Captain KL Rahul has been ruled out of the T20I series against South Africa owing to a right groin injury while Kuldeep Yadav will miss out in the T20I series after getting hit on his right hand while batting in the nets last evening,” the BCCI said in a statement.
“The All-India Senior Selection Committee has named wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant as Captain and Hardik Pandya as vice-captain for the home series against South Africa,” it added.
Rahul was handed the captaincy as the selectors had rested regular skipper Rohit Sharma along with the likes of Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah for the series.
