News India Live, Digital Desk: New Face in Team India Before Manchester Test: The Test series being played between India and England has reached its last and fourth stage. Before this decisive Test to be held in Manchester, a new young face has been included in Team India – Haryana fast bowler Anshul Kamboj. According to reports, Anshul has been included in the team as “cover” (ie an option in the event of a chief bowler being unavailable or comfort), and he will play an important role in the practice sessions as the team’s net bowler. Who is Anshul Kamboj and why he was called? Anshul Kamboj is a 21 -year -old fast bowler for Haryana. The Indian team management believes that the workload (workload) of the bowlers in this long Test series is very important. The main fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah could be rested after the last few matches, or needed an additional option to keep fresh in any situation. At the same time, Mukesh Kumar has also played a lot of cricket and the team also wants to keep his charge less. In such a situation, Anshul Kamboj will give new options for practice by staying with the team and if needed can also be a part of the main squad. How Anshul came in the eyes of the selectors? In the recent India-e-series played against England Lions (England A team), Anshul bowled brilliantly. He impressed everyone with his speed, swing and accuracy. It is being told that his performance caught the attention of National Selection Committee and Indian team coach Rahul Dravid, after which it was decided to connect him with the team. Anshul Kamboj has also played for Mumbai Indians in the IPL, but he did not get much opportunities. However, now sharing the dressing room with the Indian team and practicing with the legends will be a golden opportunity for them, which can give a new flight to their career. This shows that Team India is relying on the youth and wants to create a strong bench strength of fast bowling for the future. India is currently leading 3–1 in this Test series and would like to win the series 4–1 by winning the last Test in Manchester. Young talents like Anshul Kamboj join the team are a sign of the bright future of Indian cricket.
