Kuldeep Yadav has been added to the India squad for the third ODI match against Bangladesh after multiple injuries. While skipper Rohit Sharma was ruled out due to an injury in his finger, pacers Kuldeep Sen and Deepak Chahar are also out of the final match.

The BCCI confirmed the developments in their latest release, adding that Yadav has been added to the squad.

Earlier, India Captain Rohit Sharma suffered a blow to his thumb in the second over while fielding in the 2nd ODI.  The BCCI Medical Team assessed him, and he underwent scans at a local hospital in Dhaka. He has flown to Mumbai for specialist consultation and will miss the final ODI. A call on his availability for the upcoming Test series will be taken later.

Fast bowler Kuldeep Sen complained of stiffness in his back after the first ODI. The BCCI Medical Team assessed him, and he was advised rest from the 2nd ODI. Kuldeep has been diagnosed with a stress injury and is ruled out of the series.

Fellow fast bowler Deepak Chahar sustained a left hamstring strain during the 2nd ODI and is also ruled out of the series. Both Kuldeep and Deepak will now report to NCA for further management of their injuries.
