Shubman Gill was appointed as the new Test captain of India on Saturday while Rishabh Pant was made the vice -captain from the five -match series in England. After the retirement of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, this decision of the selectors on the leadership of the team was expected. Left -handed young batsman B Sai Sudarshan was included in the Test team for the first time. Karun Nair is returning to the national team after seven years. However, the selectors have dropped Harshit Rana and Sarfaraz Khan. In the last Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, Gautam Gambhir expressed his unwavering confidence in Harshit Rana and in such a situation, his drop from the team is shocking. Apart from this, Mohammed Shami has also not got a place in the team. At the same time, Shreyas has not been able to make a place in the team of Iyer and Akshar Patel.
Mohammed Shami
Fast bowler Mohammed Shami has been excluded from the team. He was not considered sufficiently fit for this long series. After the announcement of the team, Chairman of the Selection Committee, Ajit Agarkar said about Mohammed Shami, “His charge is not as much as it should be. We expected that he will be available, but it is unfortunate. At the moment he is not completely fit.”
Harshit Rana
Gautam Gambhir had trusted Harshit Rana and made him debut in the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series held in Perth. He took three wickets on his debut. Harshit Rana played a total of two Tests on this tour, in which he took 4 wickets and only 7 runs from his bat. Seeing Harshit, the way Gambhir was confident, it was believed that he could make a place in the team on the tour of England but it did not happen.
Sarfaraz Khan
Sarfaraz Khan made a Test debut for India on domestic soil and also got a place on the Australian tour, but he could not play a single match. Before the tour of England, Sarfaraz Khan paid a lot of attention to his fitness, but he has also missed out on making a place in the team for England tour.
Shreyas Iyer
Shreyas Iyer’s lack of selection in the team is also shocking. Last year, Shreyas Iyer performed a strong performance in domestic cricket and after that he also came to his bat in the IPL. Iyer has been going through a great form for the past one year, but still he has not got a chance.
Akshar Patel
A spinner was needed after being out after Ravichandran Ashwin. It was expected that Washington Sundar and Akshar Patel could handle this responsibility. Sundar is part of the team for the tour of England, but Akshar Patel has not been given a chance.
Indian Team: Shubman Gill, Rishabh Pant, Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudarshan, Abhimanyu Ishwar, Karun Nair, Nitish Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja, Dhruv Jurlel, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj, famous Krishna, Akash Deep, Arshdeep Singh and Kuldeep Yadav.
