Yastika Bhatia out of Australia ODI with wrist injury; Uma Chetry summoned

0


Batsman-wicketkeeper Yastika Bhatia has been ruled out of India’s upcoming ODI series in Australia due to a wrist injury she sustained during the ongoing WBBL. Instead, India called up Uma Chetry, who has no limits in the format.
Despite missing Melbourne Stars’ last three games, Bhatia was her team’s second-highest run-getter, scoring 154 runs in six outings at a strike rate of 104.76. Stars, however, finished at the bottom of the points table with two wins in ten matches.

Before his stint in the WBBL, Bhatia played the three-match ODI series against New Zealand at home and scored 84 runs in three innings. He was part of the T20 World Cup squad but did not play any matches.

Chetry has played four T20Is, all this year. His debut was against South Africa in July. Earlier this month, she was the second highest run-getter in the domestic Challenger T20 Trophy with 231 runs and a strike rate of 154.00. He also scored the only hundred in the competition, 122 off 71 balls.

Chetry also has the experience of touring Australia, with India A in August, despite his returns being disappointing. In four matches of different formats, he scored 7 and 11 in the T20, 16 in the one-day and 2 and 47 in the four-day.

The first two ODIs against Australia will be played at the Allan Border Field in Brisbane on December 5 and 8. The third and final match will be played at the WACA ground in Perth on December 11.
