3 players who were unlucky to miss out on IND's ODI squad against West Indies

2. Mohammed Shami

Mohammed Shami was not named in India's ODI squad for the West Indies series. He was also absent from the Rest of India squad for the Irani Cup. Shami's performances in the Duleep Trophy were decent without being outstanding, and with multiple regulars unavailable because of the Asian Games schedule clash, a recall was a reasonable expectation. The series would have offered him a platform to demonstrate his continued relevance in the 50-over format. Instead, the selectors opted for other pace options, leaving Shami on the outside looking in ahead of a busy white-ball calendar.
