No Mayank Yadav for T20 WC!

Rohit Sharma, Agarkar to hold PC on May 2
India captain Rohit Sharma and chief selector Ajit Agarkar will address a press conference on May 2 at 4 pm at BCCI HQ in Mumbai
No place for Rinku Singh
Star finisher Rinku Singh has been left out of the 15-member squad for the T20 World Cup and has been named as a reserve player instead. This comes at the back of a string of poor performances from the KKR star in IPL 2024.

Rohit (C), Kohli, Jaiswal, Surya, Pant (WK), Samson (WK), Hardik (VC), Dube, Jadeja, Axar, Kuldeep, Chahal, Arshdeep, Bumrah and Siraj.

Simon Katich’s World Cup Squad
Shubman Gill Dilemma
Ace opener Shubman Gill might not make the cut. Since India has an abundance of set top order batters, Men in Blue look for specialist lower order batters. Thus it could be the end of the road for Gill for T20 World Cup.
Curtains for KL Rahul?
India has made it clear that it needs specialists at the lower order. This means KL Rahul doesn’t fit the bill. Rahul loves being the anchor down the middle, while India desperately needs hard hitting enforcers.
No chance for Yuzi Chahal?
As per reports, BCCI Selection Committee is set to snub Yuzvendra Chahal yet again. Despite an impressive IPL 2024 campaign, Ravi Bishnoi is set to get a chance as Chahal has been unimpressive in Caribbeans and is a poor fielder!
BCCI Selection Committee Meeting
Ajit Agarkar is set to meet with the BCCI Selection Committee today at Ahmedabad. It is expected that the India Squad is likely to be announced tomorrow!
