TIL Desk Sports/ Having shouldered the bulk of responsibility in India’s recent Test and ODI series triumphs, the spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja has been rested from the upcoming three-match T20 Internationals against England. Leg-spinner Amit Mishra and off-break bowler Parvez Rasool were picked as replacements for the series beginning Thursday.
“The All-India Senior Selection committee in consultation with Team India management has decided to rest spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja from the Paytm T20I series against England,” the BCCI said in a statement. The Cricket Board added, “Amit Mishra and Parvez Rasool will replace Ashwin and Jadeja, with the 1st match to be played on January 26th at Kanpur.”
India will play three T20Is against England on January 26 (Kanpur), January 29 (Nagpur) and February 1 (Bangalore). Ashwin claimed 27 and 28 wickets respectively in India’s 3-0 sweep of New Zealand and 4-0 victory over England in the five-Test series, while Jadeja finished with 26 scalps against England and 14 against New Zealand.
