17 Sep
Summary
- Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are back in the ODI squad.
- Shubman Gill will continue as the captain for the ODI series.
- Several key players are unavailable due to the Asian Games.
The BCCI has announced India's 15-member squad for the upcoming three-match ODI series against the West Indies, which is scheduled to commence on September 27, 2026. A significant development is the return of veteran players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to the ODI fold. Shubman Gill retains his position as the captain for the 50-over format.
The selection process has been influenced by player commitments to the 2026 Asian Games. Consequently, key figures such as Shreyas Iyer, Jasprit Bumrah, Axar Patel, and Ishan Kishan will be unavailable for the ODI leg. Ruturaj Gaikwad has been named as a replacement for Iyer, while Dhruv Jurel steps in as the second-choice wicket-keeper in the absence of Ishan Kishan.
