Last week, the All India Senior Selection Committee announced India’s 15-man squad for the upcoming 2022 T20 World Cup, to be held in Australia from October 16 to November 13.
The selectors also named four players on the waiting list, including rhythm duo Mohammad Shami and Deepak Chahar, middle-class batsman Shreyas Iyer and leg spinner Ravi Bishnoi.
According to a report from Cricbuzz, all four substitutes will travel to Australia with the main team and be available at any time to join the squad.
Before India leaves for Australia for the T20 World Cup, India will play six T20Is at home against Australia and South Africa.
In particular, pacemakers Arshdeep Singh and Bhuvneshwar Kumar, along with all-rounder Hardik Pandya, have been asked to report to the NCA for conditioning-related work during the home series.
Should any of the mentioned fast bowlers in the 15-man squad encounter a fitness-related issue, Shami and Chahar will be available for team management.
The Indian contingent will head to Australia on October 6, while the Men in Blue kick off their T20 World Cup 2022 campaign against arch-rivals Pakistan at Melbourne Cricket Ground on October 23.

The right-armed fastball pitcher took six wickets for 140 runs in five games, with an economy of 8.84. However, it performed well at IPL 2022.
