ODI Tri-Series: India A team is currently on tour to Sri Lanka, where the ODI tri-series is being played. The performance of the Indian team in this series has not been anything special so far. She has lost 2 out of 3 matches. In such a situation, the upcoming match is going to be do or die for the Indian team. Before this match, a big change has also been made in the squad of India A. According to reports, BCCI has selected the replacement for injured player Yudhveer Singh, who is going to leave for Sri Lanka soon.
There has been a big turn in the career of 23-year-old fast bowler Ashok Sharma, who created a stir in the cricket world with his stormy pace. This young speedstar, who recently left Rajasthan and moved to Gujarat in domestic cricket, has been included in the 'India-A' team for the series being played in Sri Lanka. Ashok got this opportunity as a replacement for injured player Yudhveer Singh.
According to reports, Ashok Sharma will fly to Colombo on Tuesday morning and join the India A team in Dambulla. Let us tell you that apart from India-A, teams of Sri Lanka-A and Afghanistan-A are participating in this series. The Indian team, captained by Tilak Verma, had to face a close defeat against host Sri Lanka on Monday, after which the match against Afghanistan-A on June 17 has become a 'do or die' for India. In such a situation, Ashok's speed can give a new edge to Indian bowling.
Ashok Sharma recently impressed everyone with his speed while playing for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2026. He took 6 wickets in 6 matches in the tournament. During this time, he also threw a ball at a speed of 154.2 km/hour. Gujarat Titans bought him in the auction for Rs 90 lakh. Now he has a big chance to make a splash in the Indian jersey.
