India have been forced into two injury-enforced changes ahead of their upcoming white-ball assignments, with Prince Yadav replacing Harshit Rana in the ODI squad for England and Ravi Bishnoi coming in for the injured Varun Chakaravarthy in the T20I squad for Zimbabwe.
Both bowlers arrive at different stages of their international careers. While Prince is only beginning his journey in Indian colours, Bishnoi returns as one of India's most experienced T20I spinners.
Prince Yadav: India's newest pace prospect
Prince Yadav has enjoyed a rapid rise through domestic cricket and the IPL before making his international debut earlier this year.
The Delhi pacer has played just six international matches across formats but has already shown glimpses of his potential.
Prince Yadav international stats
| Format | Matches | Wickets | Best Figures | Average | Economy |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ODIs | 2 | 3 | 2/56 | 31.33 | 6.48 |
| T20Is | 4 | 5 | 3/22 | 28.00 | 9.33 |
Prince made his ODI debut against
Afghanistan in June 2026, claiming two wickets, before making an immediate impact in T20Is with career-best figures of 3/22 against Ireland.
His selection comes after Harshit Rana suffered a Grade 1 hamstring injury during the third T20I against England.
Ravi Bishnoi returns as India's proven T20 specialist
Unlike Prince, Ravi Bishnoi is already an established international performer.
Since making his T20I debut in 2022, the leg-spinner has become one of India's most reliable wicket-taking options in the shortest format.
| Format | Matches | Wickets | Best Figures | Average | Economy |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T20Is | 46 | 64 | 4/13 | 20.45 | 7.58 |
| ODIs | 1 | 1 | 1/69 | 69.00 | 8.63 |
Bishnoi averages just over 20 in T20 internationals while striking every 16.2 balls, underlining his reputation as an attacking spinner.
His return comes after Varun Chakaravarthy was ruled out of the Zimbabwe series with a Grade 2 hamstring injury sustained during the England T20Is.
Prince Yadav and Ravi Bishnoi Experience vs opportunity
The two replacements offer contrasting profiles.
Prince Yadav enters the England ODI squad with only two matches of 50-over international experience and will look to cement his place in India's pace-bowling plans.
Bishnoi, meanwhile, returns as a proven T20 performer with 64 wickets in 46 internationals and valuable experience heading into another bilateral series.
With injuries disrupting India's plans, both bowlers now have fresh opportunities-Prince to establish himself at international level and Bishnoi to strengthen his claim as one of India's leading white-ball spinners.
