Kohli, Shastri wanted Mayank Agarwal as replacement

By Saurabh Sharma July 03, 2019 • 11:13 AM View: 1070

Birmingham, July 3 (CRICKETNMORE) The sudden news of all-rounder Vijay Shankar being ruled out of the 2019 World Cup with a toe injury before the Bangladesh game and the move to bypass the list of reserves and name Mayank Agarwal as replacement definitely raises eyebrows.

To think that despite naming Ambati Rayudu as a batting reserve when the selectors -- led by M.S.K. Prasad -- announced the 15-member squad for the showpiece event and to then ignore him and fly in Mayank surely raises questions as to what made the national selectors change their mind.
