Abhimanyu MithunIndia has been hit by yet another injury in the recent times. Now it is R Vinay Kumar who has been injured to make way for fellow Karnataka pacer Abhimanyu Mithun in the Indian team for the 2-match T20I Series against England. The irony is that Vinay himself got into the team as a replacement of the injured Balaji and now the former has been ruled out with a strained calf muscle.

The 23-year-old Abhimanyu Mithun, the replacement of Vinay Kumar has played in four Tests and five ODIs in his short career. Mithun was expected to do something special but turned out to be a steady medium pacer with the ability to seam the ball around at 135 kmph.
