Prithvi Shaw

Star batsman Prithvi Shaw has been ruled out of the five-match one-day leg of India’s A tour of West Indies A that is scheduled to begin next week. Shaw is reportedly suffering from an untimely injury that has forced his exclusion. The nature of the injury is not yet clear. Maharashtra batsman Ruturaj Gaikwad has been called up as his replacement.

Rishabh Pant’s sudden departure to England also made way for wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan to take his place in the squad. Mayank Agarwal, who was also recently handed a World Cup call-up will be replaced by Anmolpreet Singh in the India A squad.

India A’s one-day series against West Indies A is set to begin on July 11.

Full squad: Manish Pandey (c), Ruturaj Gaikwad, Anmolpreet Singh, Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, Hanuma Vihari, Ishan Kishan (wk), Rahul Chahar, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Krunal Pandya, Deepak Chahar, Khaleel Ahmed, Avesh Khan, Navdeep Saini
