These 2 players were not eligible to play Champions Trophy, but got a chance because of Gambhir-Rohit

Champions Trophy: On Saturday, Indian selection committee chairman Ajit Agarkar and captain Rohit Sharma announced the Indian squad for the Champions Trophy in a press conference. Many talented players like Mohammed Siraj, Ishan Kishan, Yuzvendra Chahal and Sanju Samson did not get a place in Team India for this mega event. Apart from this, two such players have been selected in the squad, whose performance in ODI cricket has not been anything special. Let us know who this player is –

These two players got a chance by luck

1.Yashaswi Jaiswal

The performance of Team India's strong opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal has been tremendous in T20 and Test cricket. But till now he has not made his debut in the ODI format and he was directly included in the Champions Trophy squad. The fans are not liking this decision of the selectors at all. There were many other experienced batsmen in his place, but they were ignored.

2.Rishabh Pant

Team India's strong wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant's performance in ODI cricket has also not been anything special. But despite this, he is being given a place in the Champions Trophy squad. The left-hander has scored 871 runs in 31 ODIs at an average of 33.5, which includes only 1 century and 5 half-centuries. On the other hand, Ishan Kishan's statistics are quite good, but he too was ignored by the selectors.

Indian squad for Champions Trophy –

Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill (vice-captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah. , Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh.
