The Board of Control for Cricket in India on Tuesday named the Team India squad for the second One Day International against the West Indies, which will take place in Visakhapatnam on October 24. The BCCI decided to keep the squad unchanged for the match that will be played at the Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium.
Deciding to go with three fast bowlers for the first ODI, the team management stuck to keeping spinner Kuldeep Yadav out of the playing XI. However, we might see Yadav get a chance keeping in mind Mohammed Shami’s expensive figures, where he gave away 81 runs in his quota of ten overs. Ravindra Jadeja, Umesh Yadav and Khaleel Ahmed also proved to be expensive.
Team India for 2nd ODI, Visakhapatnam – Virat Kohli (C), Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Ambati Rayudu, Rishabh Pant, MS Dhoni (WK), Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Umesh Yadav, Mohammad Shami, Khaleel Ahmed #TeamIndia #INDvWI
