Yashasvi Jaiswal Replaces Injured Virat Kohli for India’s ODI Series Against Afghanistan
Yashasvi Jaiswal has been drafted in to replace an injured Virat Kohli for India’s three‑match ODI series against Afghanistan beginning June 13 in Dharamsala, while Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya are set to feature subject to them getting fitness clearance.
Kohli, who now plays for India in ODIs, was visibly struggling while anchoring Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s chase in the IPL 2026 final against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad, where he hit a match-winning 75 not out. The injury to his right hamstring has since aggravated, thus ruling him out of the series against Afghanistan.
