Interestingly Kedar Jadhav, who was drafted into the playing XI of India A for the Deodhar Trophy match against India C at the eleventh hour, was ignored despite regaining full fitness.
The second India vs West Indies ODI in Vishakhapatnam ended in a tie. While chasing a huge total of 322 runs, Shai Hope hit a last-ball four to Umesh Yadav to draw the game. On the other hand, it was India’s first draw in an ODI match under Virat Kohli’s captaincy. However, the hosts successfully maintained the 1-0 lead in the series.
Here is the Squad:
Virat Kohli (cap), Rohit Sharma (vice-capt), Shikhar Dhawan, Ambati Rayudu, Rishabh Pant, MS Dhoni (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah, Khaleel Ahmed, Umesh Yadav, KL Rahul, Manish Pandey
