Team India pacer Jasprit Bumrah is all set to be replaced by veteran speedster Mohammed Shami in the ICC T20 World Cup squad. He is likely to fly to Australia next week. Shami was tested positive for Covid-19 ahead of the T20I series against Australia at home. He has now recovered and if he clears the fitness test he will join the Rohit Sharma-led side in Australia. According to a report by the news agency PTI, Shami will be on his way to join the Indian team in the next 3-4 days. "Mohammed Shami, if fit, was always going to be the first replacement as that's the closest Indian team can get in terms of sheer quality. He will be joining sometime next week," a source privy to selection issues, told PTI on conditions of anonymity.
