Shubman Gill, Hardik Pandya dropped, Mayank Yadav takes Siraj's place in India's T20 World Cup squad of Harbhajan Singh

Hindustan Times  

Despite the highly-intriguing stage the IPL 2024 finds itself in, it's the T20 World Cup that everyone has their eyes on. After being left out of Ambati Rayudu and Irfan Pathan's squad, and also Virender Sehwag's T20 World Cup Playing XI, Hardik has failed to secure a place in Harbhajan Singh's list of players as well. Chahal, India's leading wicket-taker in T20Is, with 13 scalps is also the joint-highest wicket-taker in the Purple Cap list, but hasn't ever played a T20 World Cup. Having last played against West Indies last year, Chahal also missed being part of India's 2023 World Cup campaign. On to the fast bowlers, India's stock beyond Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj appears thin, especially now that Mohammed Shami is injured and ruled out of the World Cup.
