January 10, 2004 14:37 IST
Medium pacer Amit Bhandari is being flown to Australia to strengthen the bowling attack of the Indian team in the ongoing triangular One-day Cricket Series.
The decision to send Bhandari to Australia was taken after a request was received from the Indian team management in Australia, the Board of Control for Cricket in India said in a statement.
Bhandari was selected by the members of the senior national selection committee, following a telephonic discussion, after the BCCI advised the committee headed by Syed Kirmani to pick up a pace bowler following request from the Indian team, the statement said.
Arrangements are being made to send Bhandari immediately to Australia.
