Discarded Indian Test opener Murali Vijay and all-rounder Washington Sundar have been named in the Tamil Nadu side for their remaining games of the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy. The duo will be replacing top-order batsman and fast bowler V Yo Mahesh in the remaining three matches.

Washington Sundar had a great start to 2018 as he was named the Player of the Tournament in the Nidahas Trophy earlier this year and was rewarded with a place in the Indian team for the subsequent T20I and ODI series against England.

Unfortunately, the all-rounder injured his ankle while training before the Ireland T20Is and was ruled out of the tour. He underwent surgery and was undergoing rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru and it looks like the Royal Challengers Bangalore man has regained full fitness and thus, earned a call-up to his state side.

Though it has been five months since Washington last played a competitive match, the all-rounder, along with Vijay, is expected to walk into the Tamil Nadu side
