DK is now 37yrs old and I was all for him in the past, as a youngster Tendulkar blocked his place in the team. Though now I wouldve preferred Ishan ahead of him, he is an obvious talent and future captain.

Though I’ve noticed some of the older guys blooming late and playing a hand in T20.
Tendulkar was 31 when he made his debut.

Exactly bro, Sachin went on to play for a good few years after, based on batting alone DK supposed to be picked. Nothing to compete with Dhoni. Sachin blocked him and many of the younger guys.

Can't believe they've left out Bishnoi despite bowling brilliantly against Pakistan.

Relax guys. It's all part of strategy.

Step 1: Select players that are not suited for the format
Step 2: Fans already lose hope of winning
Step 3: If team fails as expected, fans are already prepared
Step 4: If team somehow wins the tournament, term it as a masterstroke.
Step 5: Profit?

This is the only logical explanation that I can think of.

KLR's appointment as VC should put to rest all questions regarding who our next T20 captain is gonna be.

Isn't the team captain at the time of selection consulted before announcing the squad? Along with the selection committee even team management including Dravid and Rohit are responsible for this.

Bishnoi and Shami in reserves is a joke. Rishabh playing ahead of Samson is another.

I agree Bishnoi & Shami should have been in but who would make way for them?

Ashwin and Hooda. After T20 wc both can play, but not now.
Dunno about Hooda tbh. He could be a vital cog if used properly. We cannot be a batsman short. Ashwin could have been replaced but only if it was an off spinner maybe? Bishnoi and Chahal both would be leggies plus Axar is a left armer. So Ashwin gives that spin variety.

We already have four frontline pacers. Why would Shami be included?
Bumrah, Bhuvi, Arshdeep and Harshal Patel surely were always going to be there. And no one has done badly either tbh. So that is why I asked even if most of us wanted Bishnoi and Shami in the squad, for whom would they be swapped?

The squad is as it was supposed to be. What else were we expecting?
