Team India’s Australia tour has started and the only wait is for the first Test match, which will start from November 22 in Perth. Team India is continuously practicing in Perth and preparing itself to face the Australian challenge. Here every Indian fan is waiting for star fast bowler Mohammed Shami to go to Australia as soon as possible and increase the strength of Team India, but at present the fans and Shami himself have to wait for this. Amidst all this, suddenly a bowler of Team India reached Australia and no one was aware of it. This player is Yash Dayal, who was also not selected for this tour.
Yash seen with the team in the stadium
The first Test match between India and Australia will start from Friday 22nd November at Optus Stadium in Perth. For this match, Team India was practicing at the old WACA Stadium in Perth till last week. Team India started practice at Optus Stadium from Tuesday 19th November. When the Indian team bus reached Optus Stadium for practice, Yash Dayal was also seen getting down from it, which surprised everyone. This was shocking because Yash Dayal is neither a part of the main squad selected for this series nor has he been included as a reserve player.
Was selected in South Africa series
Yash Dayal was earlier included in the India A team for the series against Australia A but he could not come to Australia for this tour because then he was selected for the T20 series on South Africa tour. Although he did not get to play a single match in South Africa, he remained with the team continuously. After the end of the series in South Africa, now Team India has quietly called the young left-arm fast bowler to Australia. Although BCCI has not made any official announcement regarding this, Yash Dayal was seen getting down from the bus in the video of Team India going viral on social media.
Team India is waiting for Shami
Now the question is why Yash Dayal was called to Australia? It is clear that Team India does not need Yash Dayal in the squad as a bowler at present, but he has been called only to help Team India in practice. Yash Dayal will help Indian players prepare against left-arm bowling. However, Team India already has a left arm pacer in the form of Khalil Ahmed. It is difficult to say how much the arrival of Yash Dayal will help Team India, but Team India will hope that star pacer Shami reaches Australia as soon as possible, who will truly increase the strength of the Indian team. At present, Shami has been asked to play some matches of Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, only after which a decision will be taken on sending him to Australia.
