Bhuvneshwar Kumar Returns to India T20I Squad as Bishnoi Omitted for New Zealand Tour

Bhuvneshwar Kumar returns to India's T20I squad after a long hiatus, as reported by SportsTak recently. The selection marks his comeback to the short‑format side ahead of the upcoming New Zealand tour.

Selectors have omitted fast bowler Bishnoi from the T20I roster, choosing not to include him for the New Zealand series. The decision was part of the final squad announcement released earlier today.

New Zealand Tour will feature the revised squad, with Kumar added and Bishnoi excluded, indicating a shift in bowling options for the limited‑overs campaign. The tour schedule includes multiple T20 internationals against the host nation.

SportsTak published the squad update 50 minutes ago, highlighting the changes and noting the impact on team balance as India prepares for the New Zealand series. The report emphasizes the selectors' focus on experience and form.
