BCCI announced the Team India squad for the 2019 World Cup that begins in England and Wales on 30 May. Dinesh Karthik was picked up as the second wicket-keeper in the team in place of Rishabh Pant and selectors backed Vijay Shankar to play the role of much-debated No 4 position. At the press conference, chief of selectors MSK Prasad said that the panel has covered all bases and has selected a balanced side for the show piece event in England. “We’ve covered all the bases, and this is one of the most balanced sides we have produced. We had discussed Khaleel and Saini, and they will be around. We’ve been planning. Let me frankly tell that in the last month or so, there were a couple of places which cropped up. We do have reserves,” said MSK Prasad in the press conference. Here is the Team India squad for World Cup
Balanced team? What do you say?
Wrong to drop Rayudu?
DK is flying to England
Unlucky Pant?
More reactions on Rayudu, who was India’s No 4 not a long time back
More noise on Pant’s exclusion as well
Some say that this is the best squad ever
