The squad, as announced by the Ajit Agarkar-led selection panel, consisted of a multitude of surprises in terms of both inclusions and exclusions. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rishabh Pant have both been dropped, as has Axar Patel, while Ishan Kishan has earned a recall.
Seamers Prince Yadav and Gurnoor Brar have earned their maiden call-ups alongside left-arm spinner Harsh Dubey. The rest of the squad is along expected lines.
"Pick up the phone and apologise to Yashasvi Jaiswal" - Manjrekar
Manjrekar pointed out that Rohit's lack of fitness was making the selectors take unnecessary compromises. "Sai Sudharsan has got a couple of 50s in the last set of innings playing at the top of the order for India in ODIs. Yashasvi Jaiswal's last ODI innings was a 116 not out, and these guys are not playing for India."
"If they were compelled, and had to make a compromise and pick Rohit Sharma for whatever reason, the first thing they have got to do is pick up the phone and apologise to Jaiswal, because this is a young player who has done tremendous things at the toughest level, he is in his prime with a bright future ahead."
Sanjay Manjrekar went on to say that there was currently an abundance of young Indian batters perfectly capable of emulating Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Manjrekar also said that the selection committee needed to look forward to the future of Indian cricket, and that ageing veterans like Kohli and Rohit may not necessarily be a part of it now.
Yashasvi Jaiswal in ODIs
With the apparent overcrowding in India's top order in the format, Jaiswal had to wait until 2025 to make his ODI debut despite already playing the other two formats almost two years earlier.
