And about two hours before Team India was scheduled to hit the ground for the practice session early evening, the JSCA International Stadium groundstaff had to draw the covers to protect the playing area from a light drizzle. <br \/>The weather situation on Saturday here much resembled the condition of the Indian teams \u2013 the one that has left for the T20 World Cup and the \u2018second-string\u2019 side playing the ongoing ODI series against South Africa. With each passing day, injury concerns grow for the team management. <br \/>This series may not be as significant from India\u2019s point of view, given that the first-choice players are already training Down Under. However, in terms of finding Jasprit Bumrah\u2019s replacement for the ICC mega event, the ODI series could have been the ideal stage. Even as it looks like Mohammed Shamiis the first-choice replacement for Bumrah, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/deepak-chahar\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" data-ga=\"within_article-topic_link|topic_deepak-chahar\" frmappuse=\"1\">Deepak Chahar<\/a> has impressed with his fine bowling in the T20I series. That could have just proved to be enough for the management to think of Chahar\u2019s case if Shami misses the bus. <\/p>\n<div class=\"cdatainfo   id-r-component\" data-pos=\"8\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" lang=\"en\">\n<p>All In Readiness! &#x1f44d; &#x1f44d;#TeamIndia | #INDvSA https:\/\/t.co\/jT9XHd2E2c<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 BCCI (@BCCI) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BCCI\/status\/1578766926506913792\">1665242342000<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p>However, Chahar too is in danger of missing the T20 World Cup after being ruled out of the last two ODIs against the South Africa on Saturday. BCCI on Saturday announced Washington Sundar as replacement for injured Chahar in India\u2019s squad for the remaining ODIs. <\/p>\n<p>For the likes of <!-- -->Shardul Thakur<!-- -->, who had a great all-round performance in the last match, these injuries come as opportunities to knock on the selectors\u2019 door. He will be eager to continue where he left off in Lucknow as India face a must-win situation in three-match series. The remaining two ODIs might prove to be crucial for the fringe players to break into the squad for the ICC mega event. <\/p>\n<p>Asked how it feels to play in an ODI series while the main team is away to take part in the World Cup, India pacer Shardul Thakur on Saturday said at the pre-match press conference ahead of the second ODI here, \u201cOf course it\u2019s a big setback. Every player dreams of playing in World Cup, not just play but win it as well. It\u2019s okay that I\u2019m not selected this time. But there\u2019s a lot of cricket still left and also there\u2019s ODI World Cup next year.\u201d <\/p>\n<div class=\"cdatainfo   id-r-component\" data-pos=\"24\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" lang=\"en\">\n<p>Touchdown Ranchi &#x1f4cd;#TeamIndia | #INDvSA https:\/\/t.co\/HCgIQ9pk0M<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 BCCI (@BCCI) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BCCI\/status\/1578602995688050689\">1665203257000<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p>About any outside chance of making it to the T20 World Cup , Shardul quipped, \u201cIf injuries happen then anyone can come at any point of time.

That\u2019s all in my hands\u201d. <br \/>The batting, mainly the top order, and fielding need much improvement as the Shikhar Dhawan-led side missed as many as four catches in the outfield in the first ODI. Barring vice-captain Shreyas Iyer (50 off 37 balls) and wicketkeeper-batter <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/sanju-samson\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" data-ga=\"within_article-topic_link|topic_sanju-samson\" frmappuse=\"1\">Sanju Samson<\/a> (63-ball 86), no batter looked in touch.
