  • Ayush Badoni has been named as the replacement for Washington Sundar in the ongoing three-match ODI series against New Zealand.

  • Despite discomfort, Sundar batted at No. 8 and formed a crucial partnership with KL Rahul to secure India's win.
  • Sundar will undergo further scans, making him unavailable for the remaining two matches.
  • This follows Rishabh Pant's earlier withdrawal due to an abdomen injury, with Dhruv Jurel named as his replacement.
