Avesh Khan added to squad as Mohammed Shami's replacement in SA vs IND, 2nd Test

In the upcoming 2nd Test against South Africa at Newlands in Cape Town starting on January 3rd, 2024, Team India has made a strategic change to their squad by including right-arm fast bowler Avesh Khan.

The decision comes as Mohammed Shami, a key component of India's pace attack, is forced to miss the Test due to an ankle injury. Khan, who is yet to make his Test debut, has been brought in as a replacement for Shami, with the team management aiming to bolster their bowling options for the crucial match.

Avesh Khan's inclusion adds an element of hope to the Indian bowling lineup, as the team seeks to level the series after a challenging first Test. With the match set to continue in Cape Town, cricket enthusiasts await the debut performance of Avesh Khan, who has previously showcased his skills in white-ball cricket and domestic tournaments.
