India's fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has been ruled out of the upcoming T20I series against Ireland and England as part of a workload management strategy. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced that Siraj will take a rest period following consultations between the medical team and team management. This decision aims to ensure he is fully recovered ahead of a busy international schedule. In his place, Prasidh Krishna has been named to the squad, returning to T20I cricket after strong showings in domestic and franchise competitions. The revamped T20I squad will be led by Shreyas Iyer, who takes over from Suryakumar Yadav as captain. Notably, the squad features 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, who could set a record as the youngest player to debut for India. The tour will kick off with two matches against Ireland in Belfast on June 26 and June 28, followed by a five-match series in England from July 1 to July 11. This series serves as a critical preparation phase for upcoming ICC events, including the 2028 T20 World Cup.
