Tamil Nadu`s yorker sensation Thangarasu Natarajan on Friday replaced injured pacer Umesh Yadav in the Indian Test team for the remaining two games against Australia, continuing his remarkable rise in international cricket.

Earlier, Shardul Thakur had replaced an injured Mohd Shami in the squad before the second Test. "Umesh Yadav sustained a strain in his left calf muscle on Day Three of the second Border-Gavaskar Test in Melbourne...the fast bowler will not recover completely ahead of the remaining two Test matches and has been ruled out of the series," BCCI Secretary Jay Shah stated in a media release.
