BCCI selection committee meeting to name the squads for ODI Tri-series and World Cup 2015 held today and started at 2:30 PM. Earlier, in 30 men probables – Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh, Zaheer Khan, Gautam Gambhir and Harbhajan Singh all 2011 Heroes were ignored. But injury of Ravindra Jadeja & 3 back to back centuries of Yuvraj made the fans think that Yuvraj will be selected for the squad but it’s not the case and Yuvraj Singh has been ignored by the selection committee.
Team for Australia Tri-Seris & World-Cup 2015:-
- MS Dhoni (C and wk)
- Shikhar Dhawan
- Rohit Sharma
- Ajinkya Rahane
- Virat Kohli
- Suresh Raina
- Ambati Rayudu
- RaviChandran Ashwin
- Ravindra Jadeja
- Axar Patel
- Ishant Sharma
- Bhuvneshwar Kumar
- Mohammed Shami
- Umesh Yadav
- Stuart Binny
Roger Binny (South Zone), Saba Karim (East Zome), Vikram Rathore (North Zone) and Rajinder Singh Hans (Central Zone) and Sandeep Patil (West Zone) are the members of selection committee.
Only shocking name in this list is Stuart Binny. We are not sure why Stuart Binny has been given a chance. Instead of Stuart Binny, Yuvraj Singh should have been given a chance as he is match winner & capable of doing anything.
