The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has issued a press release informing that the team selection for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia has been postponed. The board has also stated that the squad selection for the last two matches of the ongoing series against Sri Lanka is also postponed.
The selection committee under Sanjay Patil was expected to pick a side for the Australian tour and also the 2 ODIs on Tuesday. However, for reasons undisclosed the team selection did not happen.
Karnataka all-rounder Stuart Binny has been named as the replacement for the injured Varun Aaron for the second and third ODIs. The Jharkhand pacer left the field after injuring the quadriceps muscle in his right leg during the 13th over of the Sri Lankan innings and did not come on to bowl again in the match that India won by 169 runs.
It can be expected that the BCCI will soon be announcing the date for the next selection meeting.
