India's squad for the 2015 WC has
been announced today. There were no big surprises in the selection of the 15
member team that will participate in the WC in Australia apart from the
inclusion of Stuart Binni.
The team comprises of five
batsmen, two wicketkeeper-batsmen, four quicks, one spinner, andthree
all-rounders; Mohit Sharma and Dhawal Kulkarni will be travelling with the 15
men squad to Australia to play the tri series.
Ravinder Jadeja and Ishant Sharma
are chosen inspite of being slightly injured as they are expected to come to
the optimum fitness level in time. "Jadeja is at present going under a
rehabilitation program. He is doing wonderfully well. We had a detailed
discussion today with the BCCI physio and we are quite hopeful he will be
match-fit within the next ten days." BCCI secretary Sanjay Patel said.
The speculations about Yuvraj
Singh's selection were pretty ripe in the last few days despite the fact that
he was not in the 30 probables for the World Cup. But the selection panel chose
to overlook him.
