Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is expected to miss the ODI series against England. 

Bumrah, who was released from the Indian test squad due to 'personal reasons', is likely to be rested for the ODI series as well according to various reports. The fast bowler played in the 3rd Test against England in Ahmedabad, which is incidentally his hometown as well. 

Apart from Bumrah, Indian wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant, opener Rohit Sharma and all-rounder Washinton Sundar are also likely to be rested for the ODI series. 

Bumrah has not been named in India's T20I squad against England as well while Bhuvneshwar Kumar has returned to the team after recovering from his injury. 

India will play England in the 4th Test, which begins on 4th March in Ahmedabad. The two teams will then meet each other in the five-match T20I series which will be played in Motera Stadium only. India and England will then move to Pune to play three ODIs to conclude the long tour.
