Rohit Sharma & Ajit Agarkar press conference, India’s Champions Trophy 2025 squad announcement Live Updates: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) men’s selection committee will meet in Mumbai today to pick India’s squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 as well as the three-match ODI series against England. Following the selectors meeting, Indian men’s cricket team captain Rohit Sharma and chief selector Ajit Agarkar will address mediapersons at Wankhede Stadium.
Rohit is all set to lead India in the ICC tournament, which is making a comeback after eight years, and it will be interesting to see if star Jasprit Bumrah is also included in the squad. Bumrah is dealing with a back injury these days, and there are question marks over his availability for the home series as well as the eight-team tournament in Dubai and Pakistan.
As for the wicketkeeper-batter’s role, there’s a four-way fight between Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Dhurv Jurel, and Ishan Kishan.
Mohammed Shami, after being named in the T20I squad, is a certainty for ODIs as well, and there are high chances that star left-handed opening batter Yashasvi Jaiswal will also earn his maiden India ODI call-up.
India’s likely squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 and England ODIs: Rohit Sharma (C), Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant (WK), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh
