IND vs SA: The Indian team has suffered a big setback during the five-match T20 series being played against South Africa. Because Indian all-rounder Akshar Patel has been dropped from the team. He has been ruled out of the remaining two matches due to illness. This information has been given by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).

Akshar Patel out of the series

Under the captaincy of Suryakumar, 31-year-old Akshar Patel played in the first and second matches, where he scored 44 runs and took 3 wickets. But he could not play in the third match due to illness. Now he is out of the fourth and fifth matches also. Akshar is currently in Lucknow with the team, where he will undergo medical checkup.

Shahbaz Ahmed got a chance

The selection committee has included Shahbaz Ahmed in the team in place of Akshar. The fourth match will be played on 17th December in Lucknow and the fifth match will be played on 19th December in Ahmedabad. Shahbaz can do both spin bowling and batting, which will be useful for the team.

India’s position in the series

India won brilliantly in the third match and took a 2-1 lead in the series. Jasprit Bumrah did not play in the third match due to personal reasons, but he is expected to return in the remaining matches.

This change against South Africa may affect the balance of the team, but there is excitement as the new players are getting a chance. Fans are hoping that India will win the series.
