India, led by Suryakumar Yadav, clinched a 4-1 T20I series win against England at home. Rohit Sharma will take back the captaincy as India prepares to face England in a three-match ODI series, starting on Thursday, February 6. Notably, it will be India's final assignment before the Champions Trophy 2025.
"The people from Mumbai are very strong. You see that the captain for Tests and ODIs is Rohit Sharma. For T20Is, it is Suryakumar Yadav. Suryakumar and Shivam Dube are even going to play the Ranji Trophy quarterfinal. If Rohit doesn't go to England for the Test series, whose name was doing the rounds? It was Jasprit Bumrah's. In my opinion, Rishabh Pant should be there," Basit said.

The cricketer-turned-expert said that Mohammed Siraj should be included in India's squad for the final two ODIs against England amid uncertainty surrounding Jasprit Bumrah's fitness. He added that Siraj and Harshit Rana play together to help selectors decide who should be picked for the event.
In ODIs, Siraj has taken 71 wickets in 44 matches at an economy rate of 5.18. Siraj was not selected for the upcoming three-match ODI series against England, with Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Shami, and Harshit Rana in the 16-member squad.
