Team India squad for the upcoming Test collection towards West Indies was introduced on Friday (June 23). All eyes had been on the 17-man Test squad as India begin their new World Test Championship (WTC) cycle after dropping two consecutive WTC finals to New Zealand and Australia respectively. In the aftermatch of the newest WTC Final loss by the hands of Australia, Cheteshwar Pujara and Umesh Yadav have been dropped.
On the opposite hand, children Ruturaj Gaikwad and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been included in the Test arrange whereas Navdeep Saini and Mukesh Kumar are the opposite two additions to the squad. Mohammed Shami has been rested to handle his workload. However, there have been a number of gamers who deserved a call-up primarily based on their performances in the home circuit.
Here we have a look at 3 Players who deserved to be in Test staff:
1. Sarfaraz Khan
Sarfaraz Khan has been banging the door of choice for the Indian staff for previous couple of seasons now. He has been persistently performing in Ranji Trophy and even in the earlier season, he amassed 556 runs in solely 9 innings for Mumbai. The man scored runs at a median of 92.66 with three centuries and one fifty to his identify. Even in the final couple of seasons, he has been on the prime of his recreation in red-ball cricket. With the beginning of latest WTC cycle, it was being presumed that Sarfaraz Khan will be given a possibility however he stays on the sidelines but once more.
(*3*)
Well, this man not making a comeback continues to stun many in the fraternity. There was no cause for Mayank getting dropped in the primary place and now regardless of performances in Ranji Trophy, he isn’t getting his place again. Agarwal was the highest run-getter in the final Ranji Trophy season. He smashed 990 runs at a median of 82.5 with three centuries and 6 half-centuries and the perfect rating of 249 runs. He batted even in the center order for India and has scored 1488 runs in 21 Test matches for his nation. An common of 41.88 with two double-centuries certanly appears higher however sadly, Agarwal would possibly want yet one more beautiful Ranji season to make a comeback.
3. Abhimanyu Easwaran
Abhimanyu Easwaran from Bengal has to be the unluckiest among the many lot. The man has been piling on the runs on the prime of the order in Ranji cricket and but once more, he isn’t picked in the squad. In the final Ranji Trophy season, the right-hander had scored 798 runs in 14 innings at a median of 66.50 with three centuries and as many half-centuries. His first-class common of 47.85 in 87 matches is a testomony to his temperament in red-ball cricket. But with choice of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill already on the prime, it appears that evidently the selectors have already moved on from him.
