  1. Deepak Chahar

    Major concern with CSK pacer Chahar is his physical fitnes. Chahar has been out of action in the international stage for quite some time. However, he’s not just a good bowler but also a handy batsmen in lower down the order. His last appearance in ODI’s was last year against Bangladesh.

    Debuting for team India in 2022, Hooda made 10 appearances in the limited over cricket. With an average of 25 he could manage just 153 runs. However, in IPL 2023 season the alrounder had a lackluster performance. So it is pretty much sure that we wont see him in the ODI squad for the World Cup.

  3. Avesh Khan

    Many fans and ex cricketers pick for One of the hot prospects for Indian pace attack is Avesh Khan. However, excluding his domestic career, the young lad does not has a dream run so far. Playing for team India he has 3 wickets in 5 outings and in 15 T20I’s has an economy of over 9 runs per over. Considering his stats, It is next to impossible to imagine his inclusion in the squad.

  4. Washington Sundar

    Sundar in 16 One Day Internationals has 16 wickets and 233 runs. The lad is a good and vible option lower down the order and has got handsome opportunities due to the absence of Ravindra Jadeja. However, Jadeja is back in the playing XI and presence of Axar Patel in the squad is making things difficult to the SOuthers Superstar.

  5. Vijay Shankar

    Vijay Shankar and World Cup event have a very unique relationship. Sankar was picked over Rayudu in the 2019 edition of the tournament. However, the selectors justified his selections as an option of a 3 Dimenssional player. Shankar is a key player in the Gujrat Titans line up as he solidies the teams performance in middle and lower order. HE has had some good innings for the GT team but a selection in the World Cup squad is still looking blurry.
