US EditionIndia’s Yastika Bhatia Ruled Out of Women’s World Cup with Injury, Uma Chetry Replaces Her
Uma Chetry, 23, steps up from India A to senior team as a like-for-like replacement for Yastika Bhatia, who is sidelined by a left knee injury, BCCI said.
- On Thursday, the Women’s Selection Committee named wicketkeeper-batter Uma Chetry as Yastika Bhatia's replacement for the three-match ODI series against Australia and the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025, following Bhatia’s left knee injury.
- Bhatia’s injury has left a significant void in India’s middle order and wicketkeeping, with the BCCI Medical Team monitoring her progress but no official recovery timeline released.
- Among the noted details, Uma Chetry appears as a wicketkeeper alongside captain Harmanpreet Kaur and vice-captain Smriti Mandhana, having played seven T20Is but yet to debut in ODIs.
- Chetry’s promotion means she joins the senior camp and is withdrawn from India A’s World Cup warm-up on September 28, while India hosts Australia from September 14 and starts the World Cup in Guwahati on September 30.
- Chetry’s arrival brings depth and youthful energy, while Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana must manage a reshuffled batting order this month.
