3 Players who deserved to be in India's ODI squad for West Indies tour
These three players could have been in India's ODI squad facing the West Indies.
2. Arshdeep Singh
BCCI didn’t give a chance to Arshdeep Singh to tour West Indies for three ODIs. In November 2022, Arshdeep marked his debut in ODIs during India’s tour of New Zealand. Playing three games in the competition, the left-arm pacer couldn’t pick up any wicket and splurged runs at an economy of 6.75.
However, the board should have backed Arshdeep as the speedster has proven his skills in T20 Internationals (T20Is). Consistent support could’ve lifted the confidence of the young pacer. Arshdeep has toe-crushing yorkers, sharp bouncers, and slower cutters in his armoury to trouble batters.
In Caribbean conditions, he could’ve turned lethal against the West Indies as pitches there are best known for supporting pacers. In List A cricket, Arshdeep’s bowling numbers are decent as he has picked up 21 wickets in 18 innings of 20 matches, at an economy of 4.94.
