NEW DELHI: Ayush Badoni has earned his maiden international call-up and has been named as Washington Sundar’s replacement for the remaining two ODIs of the three-match series against New Zealand. Sundar has been ruled out of the final two matches after sustaining a rib injury while bowling in the series opener in Vadodara.

“India all-rounder Washington Sundar reported an acute onset discomfort in his left lower rib area while bowling during the first ODI against New Zealand at the BCA Stadium, Vadodara, on Sunday. He will undergo further scans, following which the BCCI Medical Team will seek expert opinion,” BCCI said in release.

“Washington has been ruled out of the remaining two matches of the IDFC First Bank ODI series. The Men’s Selection Committee has named Ayush Badoni as his replacement. Badoni will link up with the squad in Rajkot, the venue for the second ODI,” it added.

The 26-year-old, who bowled five overs for 27 runs, walked off midway through the New Zealand innings and did not return to field on Sunday. Despite the discomfort, he later came out to bat at No. 8 as India picked a four-wicket win.

Washington is the third Indian player to pick up an injury, wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant was ruled out of the ongoing series after suffering a side strain last week while Tilak Varma is unavailable for the first three T20Is against New Zealand due to a groin injury which required surgery.

Badoni has featured in 27 List A matches so far, scoring runs at an average of 36.47, with one century and five half-centuries to his name.

He has also contributed with the ball in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy for Delhi, bowling 22 overs across three innings and picking up four wickets at an average of 19.75 and an economy rate of 3.59.

India’s updated squad for 2nd and 3rd ODIs: Shubman Gill (C), Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul (WK), Shreyas Iyer (VC), Ravindra Jadeja, Mohd Siraj, Harshit Rana, Prasidh Krishna, Kuldeep Yadav, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Arshdeep Singh, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Dhruv Jurel (WK), Ayush Badoni.
