MUMBAI: The All-India Senior Selection Committee on Thursday picked the squad for the five-match T20I series against the West Indies.
Senior players like Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah have not been included in the squad. Kohli sustained a mild groin strain before the first ODI against England.
Meanwhile, veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has made his return. Also, K L Rahul and Kuldeep Yadav return to the squad, but their inclusion is subject to their fitness.
India’s squad for 5 T20Is: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Ishan Kishan, K L Rahul*, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Shreyas Iyer, Dinesh Karthik, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, R Ashwin, Ravi Bishnoi, Kuldeep Yadav*, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan, Harshal Patel, Arshdeep Singh.
The West Indies will host the Men in Blue for a three-match ODI series and a five-match T20I series from July 22 to August 7. (ANI)
