The Indian team has been announced for the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. There are many players who have been ignored for this series.
The five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia will start from November 22. BCCI has announced the 18-member Indian team for this series. There are many players in the team who have been selected in the first innings team. These players include the names of young players like Harshit Rana and Nitish Reddy. However, there are some players who have been ignored for this series. Let's take a look at these players.
Mohammed Shami
The biggest name among the players taking part in the Border-Gavaskar series against Australia is that of fast bowler Mohammed Shami. Shami has returned from injury and has also started bowling in the nets. However, the reason for not being selected for the series against Australia is because of his not playing domestic cricket. In his place, BCCI has selected fast bowler Akash Deep.
Akshar Patel
Spin all-rounder Akshar Patel has also been in a similar situation as Shami. Axar has often been included in the Test team, but this is the second consecutive series when he has not been selected for any Test series. Recently, even against Bangladesh, he did not get a chance in the Test team. Akshar has played 14 matches so far, in which he has 55 wickets in his name. He has scored 646 runs with ball and bat.
Ruturaj Gaikwad
Gaikwad has traveled to Australia with the India A team and is the captain of the team. He has to play two first-class matches here. Gaikwad, who has been performing well in domestic cricket, played two matches in this Ranji season and scored 223 runs in three innings. Meanwhile, he also scored a century with his bat. Gaikwad has also not been included in the T20 series against South Africa. He has played 6 ODI and 23 T20 International matches for India so far.
