For the T20 world cup to be played in the Westindies, Vinay Kumar has been included in the team. This was in the expected lines, as he has been in excellent bowling form this season, both in the domestic circuit as well as in the IPL.
Uthappa or Manish Panday, as one would have expected, came close to being selected, but could not make it to the final eleven. Even Virat Kohli finds himself out of the side.
Ravinder Jadeja, who is not featuring in this IPL, was included in the side. Rohit Sharma too, was included in the side, going by his good form this season. The inclusion of Piyush Chawala was a bit surprising, but it seems they have gone for Chawala due to his lower order batting abilities besides his bowling.
Team:
MS Dhoni, Virender Sehwag ,Gautam Gambhir, Harbhajan Singh, Yuvraj Singh, Vinay Kumar, Piyush Chawla, Suresh Raina, Yusuf Pathan, Ravindra Jadeja, Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra, Praveen Kumar, Dinesh Karthik, Rohit Sharma.
