In a blow to India's preparations for the challenging tour of England, key pacer Jasprit Bumrah and off-spinner Washington Sundar were on Saturday ruled out of the Twenty20I series, starting Tuesday, due to injuries.

Bumrah sustained an injury to his left thumb while fielding in the first Twenty20I against Ireland in Malahide on Wednesday, and thus will miss the three-match series in England. Bumrah, though, is expected to be fit in time for the three-match ODI series that begins in Nottingham on July 12.
