Fast-bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar is back in the Indian squad for the remaining three ODIs and its very much likely that he will be part of the playing XI in Ranchi. Mohammed Shami possibly will make way for Bhuvi. Another change on cards is Rishabh Pant’s inclusion. India could try Pant in the middle-order and it will be interesting to see who will be ordered to warm the bench. As of now, Ambati Rayudu looks the suitable candidate to do that.
