T20I, ODI and Test Squads for West Indies Tour


By Indian Cricket Fever

Virat Kohli retained the captaincy for all three formats, while veteran Wridhiman Saha made a comeback to the Test squad after missing over a year with injury.  The other big news was the omission of Shubman Gill from any of the squads and the resting of Indian spearhead Jasprit Bumrah the world No. 1 bowler in ODIs from T20Is and ODIs.  Ravindra Jadeja gets selected for all three formats which is a bit of a pleasant surprise.   The squads look well balanced and since the West Indies are lowly ranked in all the formats India should be firm favorites to win in all formats.   India will particularly be looking to win however in the Test format as the 2 match series will count towards the ICC Test Championship.

Sad to see that Prithvi Shaw is not in the Test squad... but this is due to injury. Shubman Gill missing out is due to a glut of middle order talent...though how come Rohit Sharma is STILL in the Test side is a mystery..

Now we learn Shaw is suspended for a doping violation which by all accounts was totally inadvertent and innocent. Cough syrup... for Chrissakes...

Anyway it opens the door for Mayank Agarwal to cement a spot in the team.. also takes the pressure of Shikar Dhawan...
