Fast bowler Harshit Rana is no longer a part of the Indian team on England tour. Trusted sources told news agency IANS that Rana has been released from the Indian Test team. He will return to India from Leeds. The Indian team has reached Birmingham for the second Test.
Harshit Rana was included in the Indian team just before the first Test played against England in Leeds. He could not make it to the final 11 of the Leeds Test. England won this Test on the last day by chasing a target of 371 runs by five wickets.
According to the information received, a fast bowler of the Indian team had trouble. In such a situation, the management wanted to keep a fast bowler as a backup, who uses the bouncer properly. Rana was the right choice and that is why he was linked to the team, but now everything is fine. So Rana has now been released.
Harshit Rana made his Test debut during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy last year. He played two Tests, which has four wickets in his name. His best performance in Perth was 3-48. In England, Rana got a chance to play the first match for India ‘A’ against England Lions in Cancerbury. His performance in this match was also simple. He took one wicket for 99 runs.
Despite the simple performance, there was also a criticism of giving Harshit Rana a place in the team for the England Test series. Cricket expert Anshul was considering Anshul Kamboj as a better option, who batting in the lower order along with bowling and his performance from India ‘A’ was also good.
The Indian team has started the World Test Championship 2025-2027 from the five-Test series against England. In the first Test against England, both innings scored five centuries from India. Despite this, the team had to face defeat. The Indian team is lagging behind 1-0 in the series. In the second Test starting on July 2 in Birmingham to stay in the series, Team India, captained by Shubman Gill, will have to return.
