The duo will join the squad ahead of the series, which is scheduled to begin on July 3 in Manchester.
Injury rules out Bumrah and Sundar out of T20I series
Indian pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah picked up a thumb injury and has been ruled out of the T20I series. On the other hand, all-rounder Washington Sundar suffered an ankle injury and will miss out on the ODI series as well. Axar Patel has been called up to replace Sundar in the three-match ODI series against England, which will follow three T20I matches.
Krunal and Deepak were a part of India A squad
Krunal had an impressive IPL campaign and is also a part of India 'A' squad touring UK. Deepak Chahar was one of the key performers for CSK. He was called for India 'A' ODI series involving West Indies A and England Lions. Chahar has bagged 7 wickets in the series so far. This is a great opportunity for these two to showcase their abilities.
