No Jaiswal, No Hyderabad Star: Fans Slam Gambhir

India have announced their squad for the upcoming ODI series against England, but a few selection decisions have become a talking point among fans.

While experienced players like Virat Kohli, Axar Patel and Jasprit Bumrah have returned to the squad, some players who performed well recently have missed out.

The biggest surprise is the exclusion of Yashasvi Jaiswal. The left handed batter scored a century in the third ODI against Afghanistan.

Despite his performances, Jaiswal has not been included in the squad for the England series. With Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill continuing as the first choice opening pair, Jaiswal has once again found himself out of the team.

Mohammed Siraj is another player whose absence has raised questions. Siraj was rested from the T20I squad due to workload management, but many expected him to return for the ODI series. Despite, the selectors have decided to leave him out.

Meanwhile, Washington Sundar’s selection has become a major topic of discussion on social media.

Many fans believe players like Jaiswal and Siraj have done enough to earn a place in the squad.

Fans have questioned whether certain players are being preferred despite others producing stronger performances.

The squad announcement has also brought Gautam Gambhir under doubts. Several fans feel recent performances should carry more weight in selection decisions.

While the team management may have its own plans ahead of future tournaments, the omission of Jaiswal and Siraj is likely to remain a talking point throughout the England ODI series.
