Indian all-rounder Vijay Shankar ousted from World Cup due to toe injury, Mayank Agarwal to be his likely replacement

Indian all-rounder Vijay Shankar ousted from World Cup due to a toe injury, Mayank Agarwal to be his likely replacement.

"Vijay got hit on the toe by a Jasprit Bumrah delivery once again. His situation is not great and he won't be able to take part in the tournament. He is going back home," a senior BCCI official told PTI.

"The Indian team management is likely to ask for Mayank Agarwal as a replacement since he is an opener and also it might give KL Rahul a chance to get back to the No.4 position in case Rishabh Pant fails in the next two games," the source added.
