The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Sunday announced the three Indian squads (ODIs, T20Is and Tests) for the upcoming tour of the West Indies which starts from August 3 in Florida.
Rohit Sharma has been brought back in the Test squad while Jasprit Bumrah has been rested from the limited-overs series along with all-rounder Hardik Pandya.
After the captain made himself available for the full tour, Virat Kohli will lead the team in all three series. Wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant will also be a part of all three formats.
After a gap of more than a year, Wriddhiman Saha will rejoin the Test. He was last seen playing in the first Test against South Africa in Cape Town in January 2018 after which he was ruled out due to a shoulder injury.
MS Dhoni will be available in the limited-overs series after the former captain made himself unavailable for the next two months as he will be with his Parachute regiment of the Territorial Army.
Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, and Kuldeep Yadav have been selected as the spinners for the Test series.
