Concerning the ongoing reports regarding the ICC Champions trophy and the ODIs contesting against England, as of now, the India squad has not been announced. However it is anticipated that this announcement will be made anytime before the cutoff date of January 17. Time is short, keeping in mind the given date and this places the selectors in a difficult position as they need to form a squad that ‘seems’ premium. What can be helpful for the selectors though is the fact that they are expected to pick Jisprit Bumrah who has an injured back and that can prove to be a game changer, Nonetheless, we do expect Bumrah to miss out on this contest.

Speaking of which, Mohammed Shami is ready to make his return in the ODI matches against England and in the champions trophy. Shami was picked also in the T20I India squad while for the series against England. Yashasvi Jaiswal is another player that is expected to be picked in the squad as a back up for Shubman Gill as well. Also, there are big questions on Kuldeep Yadav as well and if he would be in the selectors scheme of things not being in action for a while because of injury. Otherwise, Varun Chakravarthy could be an option if Kuldeep isn’t around.
