Women's World Cup 2025: The Harmanpreet Kaur-led side faced a massive setback as wicketkeeper-batter Yastika Bhatia got ruled out of the India squad for the upcoming Australia ODI series, and the marquee World Cup starting in September. Uma Chetry earned a call-up on Thursday after Bhatia was ruled out due to a knee injury.

Notably, the wicketkeeper who seldom opens for India, hurt her left knee during India's preparatory camp in Visakhapatnam, the BCCI said on Thursday.

"The BCCI Medical Team is monitoring Yastika Bhatia's progress and the team wishes Yastika Bhatia a speedy recovery," the BCCI said in a media release.

Chetry's inclusion in the senior squad means she will no longer feature for India A in their World Cup warm-up game.

"Chetry, who now is a part of the India squad for the Australia series and the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025, will no longer be a part of the India A squad, which is scheduled to take part in a warm-up match in the World Cup," it added.

The Women in Blue will then play two World Cup warm-ups in Bengaluru before facing co-hosts Sri Lanka in the tournament opener in Guwahati on September 30.
