India's squad for Champions Trophy announced.

Quote
R. Sharma(C), S. Gill (VC), V. Kohli, S. Iyer, KL Rahul, H. Pandya, A. Patel, W. Sundar, K. Yadav, J. Bumrah, M. Shami, A. Singh, Y. Jaiswal, R. Pant, R. Jadeja
That is a great lineup right there. Shami and Iyer are big boosts to the overall lineup while Axar and Sundar are great all-rounder additions. Big question is if Rohit and Kohli will retain their form by then.

If they do, the chances of them lifting the trophy increase quite a bit, but the reverse is true if they don't. Excited for the tournament.
Rishab Pant is a questionable selection. he's good but guys like Samson offer more with the bat and gloves in the white ball cricket.

Also, it feels like we are 1 seamer short. If by any chance 1 seamer gets injured or becomes unfit, the team combination will suffer but I guess they are assuming that UAE will offer a slow surface and spin will play a major part.
