Team News

West Indies T20 specialist spinner Samuel Badree has been replaced in RCB squad. The team management named South African Chinaman Tanraiz Shamsi as Badree's replacement in the team.

"Brance yourselves, Tabraiz Shamsi, the Chinaman from South Africa has already landed at the RCB camp. The 26-year-old has the knack of turning the bowl a long way on both sides of the wicket and has often left batsmen bamboozled with his wrong un," RCB said in a statement on Thursday.
