India pacer Jaydev Unadkat has been added to the Indian Test squad for the upcoming series in Bangladesh as a replacement for the injured Mohammed Shami.
Shami, who was a part of both the ODI and Test squads for the Bangladesh tour, has been ruled out with a shoulder injury suffered during the preparations in the lead-up to the series.
"Unadkat is currently in Rajkot, waiting to complete his visa formalities, and is expected to link up with the Test squad in Chattogram over the next couple of days," reported ESPNCricinfo.
The 31-year-old Unadkat played his lone Test in 2010, against South Africa in Centurion. Since then, he has played seven ODIs and 10 T20 Internationals.
