The event in Mumbai was held to announce India\u2019s squad for the ODI series against England and the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, with it featuring key revelations about the team, including Yashasvi Jaiswal<\/a> and Harshit Rana\u2019s maiden ODI call-up.
Jaiswal, who has been in stellar form across formats, earned his spot as the third opener alongside skipper Rohit Sharma and vice-captain Shubman Gill.
The 23-year-old had an impressive run in Australia during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, amassing 391 runs in 5 Tests at an average of 43.44. <\/p>\n

What does the horoscope of struggling Prithvi Shaw say?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

His consistent performances in T20Is, where he has scored 723 runs at an explosive strike rate of 164.31, further bolstered his case for selection.
Chief selector Agarkar also shared updates on other team decisions, such as the return of seasoned pacer Mohammed Shami<\/a> and wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav<\/a> following their recovery from injuries.
However, Jasprit Bumrah<\/a>\u2019s fitness remains a concern.
Agarkar revealed that Bumrah, who was rested after an intense series in Australia, might not feature in the first two ODIs against England.
Harshit Rana was named as his backup for the series.
India\u2019s ODI series against England, scheduled for February 6, 9, and 12, serves as a prelude to the Champions Trophy, which kicks off on February 19.<\/div>\n
