India vs Sri Lanka: Kuldeep Yadav has not been dropped but released due to bubble fatigue, says Jasprit Bumrah

India Today  

India vice-captain Jasprit Bumrah has clarified that the team management hasn't dropped Kuldeep Yadav and he has been released ahead of the second Test against Sri Lanka due to bio-bubble fatigue. Notably, Axar Patel joined the Indian squad, while Kuldeep Yadav was released from the team ahead of the second Test against Sri Lanka. The chinaman bowler was also part of the Indian team for the three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka too, and hence, has been staying in the bubble for a long time. It will be interesting to see if Axar will get a game in Bengaluru as India and Sri Lanka will look to make use of the conditions in the pink-ball Test.
