India vice-captain KL Rahul and all-arounder Axar Patel have been ruled out of the upcoming T20I series against West Indies in Kolkata. The BCCI have named Ruturaj Gaikwad and Deepak Hooda as replacements, sources Cricbuzz.
Rahul sustained an upper left hamstring strain while fielding in the second ODI in Ahmedabad and will be needing time to recuperate. Axar, on the other hand, has resumed the "final stage of his rehabilitation" after recently recovering from Covid-19.
