Shahrukh and Sai Kishore to join as India reserves for upcoming West Indies series

The Tamil Nadu duo of Shahrukh Khan and R Sai Kishore will be joining the Indian white-ball team as stand-by players for the three T20Is in Kolkata between February 16-20.

Both Shahrukh and Sai Kishore played a huge part in Tamil Nadu's victorious campaign and their call-up is more of a precautionary



measure in COVID-19 times when there is every possibility of a player from the main squad testing positive.

"Yes, Shahrukh and Sai Kishore have been called as stand-bys for the Windies series. They will also enter the bubble with main team players," a senior BCCI official confirmed the development to PTI.
