Mohammed Siraj on Friday was named as the replacement for injured Jasprit Bumrah for ongoing India vs South Africa T20 series, the Indian cricket board (BCCI) confirmed in a statement.

“The All-India Senior Selection Committee named Mohammed Siraj as a replacement for injured Jasprit Bumrah for the remainder of the T20I series against South Africa,” BCCI said.

Earlier Bumrah was reportedly ruled out of the upcoming T20 World Cup with a back stress fracture and is expected to be out of action for the next six months. BCCI confirmed in its statement that the senior pacer has a back injury but didn’t mention if he’s out of the T20 extravaganza.

“Bumrah has sustained a back injury and is currently under the supervision of the BCCI Medical Team.”

Meanwhile, the remaining two matches of the India vs South Africa series will be played in Guwahati on 2 October and in Indore on 4 October.
