Shubman Gill has been in good form for India A while Vijay Shankar returns from injury, which forced him to return home midway from the World Cup.

The lanky Shankar made his TNPL debut in the fourth season, playing for former champions Chennai Super Gillies against Tuti Patriots in Tirunelveli.

Indian speedster Jasprit Bumrah shared the cheeky banter with Vijay Shankar after his yorker delivery hit Shankar on the toe, ruling him out of the World Cup.

Ambati Rayudu hanged up his boots on Wednesday and perhaps it came in the most personified way possible -- battered, ignored and forgotten.

  Agarwal is yet to make his ODI debut, although he was impressive in his debut Test series during India's historic victory in Australia earlier his year. 

The BCCI is likely to make a formal request to the ICC to call in a replacement, which could be Karnataka opener Mayank Agarwal.

Rishabh Pant has been included for the first time in India's playing XI since joining the side as replacement for the injured Shikhar Dhawan.

Kohli's vote of confidence ahead of the England game means that Rishabh Pant will have to wait to get his first game.

Vijay Shankar hasn't been at his best with the bat at no. 4, as the batsman was dismissed cheaply in the games against Afghanistan and West Indies.

A keen learner, the soft-spoken all-rounder knows that bowling is not exactly his strength and he is ready to work on that aspect.

In case, Shankar doesn't play due to fitness concerns or team combination, the toss-up will be between Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik.

Bumrah's yorker hit Vijay Shankar's toe during the training session in Southampton.

With Dhawan already ruled out of the tournament and Bhuvneshwar out for two games, Shankar's injury will only increase tension for the team management.

Shankar's 'three-dimensional' ability was put to test against Pakistan and he responded with wickets of opener Imam ul Haq and rival captain Sarfaraz Ahmed.

There was a spell of rain on Monday and forecast of cloudy weather and shower on Wednesday in Southampton and that has been confusing the team management about which all-rounder to go with against South Africa.

KL Rahul scored a brilliant century against Bangladesh in India's second warm-up game and has seemingly settled the debate for the number 4 spot at World Cup 2019.

Another boost comes its way for India as Kedar Jadhav was also seen in the nets but is unlikely to participate in the practice match against Bangladesh.

India will take on Bangladesh in their second and final warm-up game for the World Cup on Tuesday. Kedar Jadhav and Vijay Shankar face race against time to gain fitness for the tournament.

Vijay Shankar was selected over Ambati Rayudu in India's World Cup squad, and the batsman didn't take it very well.

The Tamil Nadu all-rounder didn't take part in the first warm-up game against New Zealand and is also unlikely to play in the second practice match against Bangladesh at Cardiff.
