The BCCI under the chairman of selectors of the All-India Senior Selection Committee Chetan Sharma officially announced the squads for the tours to New Zealand and Bangladesh later in November and December this year. India and Bangladesh are set to lock horns, first in the One Day Internationals (ODI) format followed by the longest format of the sport, in two-match Test series.

The Men in Blue last played Test cricket back in July this year against England that marked the fifth and the final match of the five match series. While there are quite a few players making their return to the national side since their last test outing against England, there are others who appear to have been overlooked by the apex cricketing board of India.

Rohit Sharma (C), KL Rahul (VC), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (wk), KS Bharat (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Shardul Thakur, Mohd. Shami, Mohd. Siraj, Umesh Yadav.

Here is a list of 3 Players who missed out from India's Test squad against Bangladesh

Ajinkya Rahane has not been included in the squad released by the <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/bcci-announces-indias-test-and-odi-squads-for-bangladesh-tour/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BCCI</a> in the forthcoming tour to Bangladesh. The veteran batter is currently playing in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and has been named as the captain of the Mumbai team in the knockout rounds.

The Mumbai batter is known to be calm on the field that is a trait much required in the longest format of the game. Moreover, he has helped the side to churn out the runs in the format when given an opportunity and provide vital knocks.

Rahane’s perspective in the 5-day long format has been much appreciated as he gives his side a different dimension with the bat. Considering his vast experience in the test format, overlooking Rahane may not have been the best of decisions.

Sarfaraz Khan has been under the radar for quite a while but has failed to make the cut in the side. The batter averaged around 122 in the Ranji Trophy 2021-22. Moreover, he has been in incredible form, having scored crucial runs for India A, Mumbai, and the Rest of India at the first-class level.

In 29 first-class outings, the 25-year-old has scored 2928 runs at an average of 81.33 with 10 centuries and eight half-centuries under his belt. He is currently plying his trade in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy wherein he has played seven matches with a top score of 37 against Rajasthan.

While the player has significantly improved his game with the bat, it remains to be seen how swiftly he can earn a national call-up. Chairman of selectors Chetan Sharma deemed the player to play for India ‘very soon’ considering his recent outings in First class cricket.

One of biggest talking points after the announcement of the squads was the absence of Hanuma Vihari. Chairman of selectors <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/we-do-not-want-to-rush-things-with-jasprit-bumrah-this-time-chetan-sharma/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chetan Sharma</a> voiced that the measure was taken because Vihari ‘does not fit in’ India's combination for the Bangladesh series.

The batter was last included in the England series in their previous Test outing where he projected a rather dismal performance scoring only 20 off 53 balls and 11 off 44 balls in the first and second innings. However, the Test specialist lost his spot due to middle order becoming ‘packed’ considering the likes of Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer and others.

Moreover, the selectors believe, despite the batter’s fine ability of staying calm under pressure and playing vital innings, he may not be the best option in the Bangladesh pitches and conditions. As per the selectors, he may make his return in another bilateral series later on next year.
