Fit again Bhuvneshwar Kumar to play for India A

XtraTime Web Desk: Indian cricket team’s star pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar was declared fit by BCCI today and he will play for India A in the ongoing Quadrangular series.

“Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been declared fit and will be a part of the India A squad in the ongoing Quadrangular series,” the BCCI said in a statement.




Kumar had aggravated his lower back injury while playing the third India-England ODI match in the UK. He was subsequently ruled out of the ongoing India-England Test series and had to undergo recovery training at the National Cricket Academy here.




Kumar will play against South Africa A on August 29 here as Shreyas Iyer-led India A will battle it out for the third position in the Quadrangular series.

India A are already out of the Quadrangular series as they could manage just nine points. They lost to South Africa A today.
