We will stick to our stand. ICC has to announce the schedule of the tournament. We are waiting for the schedule to be announced, so that we can start preparing accordingly.

53-year-old Jadeja believes that fast bowler Bumrah is more important than Hardik. In such a situation, use of RTM for Hardik can prove beneficial for MI.
