Sai Sudharshan, Harshit Rana, and Jitesh Sharma have been asked to link up with the side for the first 2 games as replacements for Shivam Dube, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Sanju Samson.

The Trio was in the World Cup squad, however with a dangerous hurricane-like situation building up in the Caribbean, all the flights currently have been put on hold.
