Mohammed Siraj named for ODIs but snubbed from the T20I squad for the upcoming Australia tour
Pacer Mohammed Siraj has been praised for his remarkable fitness since he has worked effortlessly for India without any concerns over his workload. Siraj was the anchor of India's historic win at The Oval.
Despite having missed the Asia Cup 2025, Siraj didn't compromise on his form as he rocked the West Indies batting order with his pace bowling. Mohammed Siraj picked 7 wickets in India's decisive win over the West Indies in the first Test.
In Jasprit Bumrah's absence and Mohammed Shami not being considered any further by the Indian selectors, he is currently the most experienced pacer in the side. Siraj will lead India's pace attack against Australia in the upcoming ODI series.
However, in the shortest format of the game, Jasprit Bumrah will be spearheading the pace attack alongside Arshdeep Singh. Mohammed Siraj has not been picked in that format, considerably to provide him some relaxation over his workload.
Golden Opportunity for Nitish Kumar Reddy in the Australia tour
Hardik Pandya, the seasoned Indian all-rounder, was snubbed from the Asia Cup final after the player suffered a major injury to his quadriceps. Owing to the same injury, Pandya has been ruled out of the Australia tour.
This has proved to be a blessing in disguise for all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy. Reddy is all set to make his much-awaited return to the Indian T20I side, and he is also set to make a long-awaited debut in the ODI format.
While Gautam Gambhir looks to have maximum all-rounders in the side, Reddy might be featured alongside Shivam Dube, especially in the Indian T20I side. If he can fire in with bat and ball, he can be cited as a dependable option for the future of the Indian captain.
