India
cricket team
right-arm pacer Deepak Chahar has been ruled out of the third and
final One Day International (ODI) against the Windies cricket team
due to a lower back injury. Navdeep Saini has been named as his
replacement and will join the squad for the decider to be played on
Sunday.
In
a media release, BCCI stated that Deepak felt mild pain in his lower
back following the second ODI played in Vizag on Wednesday which
India won comprehensively. "The BCCI medical team examined him
and has suggested that the fast bowler needs some rest in order to
fully recover. He has thus been ruled out of the final ODI," the
statement read.
Deepak
went wicket-less in Visakhapatnam, giving away 44 runs in his seven
overs. He had also dropped a catch of Nicholas Pooran, who along with
Shimron Hetmyer at one stage, threatened to take the game away from
India.
However,
the visitors were bundled out for 280 inside 44 overs, thus falling
short of India's total of 387 by 107 runs. Read
