ODI World Cup 2023: Top 3 shocking exclusions from Indian squad
While India's squad was similar to what most experts and fans had expected, there were some key and surprise exclusions from the 15-member list as well.
3. Yuzvendra Chahal
The biggest exclusion from the Indian World Cup squad was leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal. The BCCI selection committee went with just one specialist spinner, Kuldeep Yadav, and two spin all-rounders, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel.
Chahal had fallen off the radar in ODIs for quite some time now and had not played a single game in the West Indies ODI series as well.
There was an outside chance that he would be picked for the World Cup Indian squad, as he was also not named for the Asia Cup 2023 squad.
