IND vs BAN T20Is: Mayank Yadav gets maiden call-up, Varun Chakravarthy makes India comeback

New Delhi: P.c. sensation Mayank Yadav got his maiden India call-up while Varun Chakravarthy returned to national colours after a spot of three years because the BCCI announced their squad on Saturday for the T20I series against Bangladesh. Kolkata Knight Riders pacer Harshit Rana, who didn’t get a game within the T20I series against Zimbabwe, has also been named within the 15-member squad.

The Lucknow Super Giants pacer, who grabbed the eyeballs in IPL 2024 along with his raw %, has been on the sidelines since April 30 after suffering an injury. He did return within the tournament but injured himself again to be ruled out of IPL 2024. Since then, he became monitored by the BCCI medical team at the National Cricket Academy (NCA).
