Uncapped allrounder Suryansh Shedge has been called up to India's T20I squad for the series in Ireland and England as replacement for the injured Nitish Kumar Reddy.
Shedge, 23, was part of the India A squad that won the recent 50-over tri-series against Sri Lanka A and Afghanistan A in Sri Lanka.
Batting in the lower-middle order, he scored 147 runs at a strike rate of 120.49, and also bowled 23 overs across five innings, taking two wickets with his medium pace at an economy of 6.04. Playing for Punjab Kings in IPL 2026, Shedge scored 158 runs in seven innings at an average of 39.50 and strike rate of 175.55.
Reddy was ruled out of the tour with a left quadriceps injury that he aggravated during last week's third ODI against Afghanistan in Chennai. He will undergo his rehab at the BCCI's Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru for at least a month, with a view to being ready for the two-Test tour of Sri Lanka in August.
Mohammed Siraj (workload management) and Varun Chakravarthy (foot injury) were previously withdrawn from the original T20I squad named for the tour.
India play two T20Is against Ireland in Belfast on June 26 and 28, before travelling to England to play five T20Is followed by three ODIs. The T20Is are in Chester-le-Street (July 1), Manchester (July 4), Nottingham (July 7), Bristol (July 9) and Southampton (July 10).
