Mumbai Indians batsman Suryakumar Yadav has been knocking the selectors’ doors for quite sometime especially the kind of performance he unfolded during the IPL 2020 in UAE.
Being a part of the IPL-winning team, Yadav amassed 480 runs in the season.
If the reports are to be believed, Yadav might be picked for the limited overs fixtures against England.
Apart from Surya, wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant who has been in some brilliant form recently might also make a comeback in the Indian team for ODIs and T20Is.
The India-England white-ball series will kick off with five-match T20I series in Ahmedabad from March 12 to 20. The 3 ODIs will be played in Pune on March 23, 26 and 28.

Earlier, the reports had suggested that Bumrah would also be rested for T20Is and ODIs while Bhuvneshwar Kumar will return to the team.
"Jassi has already bowled close to 180 overs, including nearly 150 overs (149.4 overs) in four Test matches (till first Test versus England) since the start of the Australian tour.
"Add to that, the number of hours spent on the field. It is only logical that after these two Tests in Motera, where he will have a big role to play, he should be given rest for white-ball leg," a senior BCCI official, privy to the developments, was quoted as saying by PTI on condition of anonymity.
