India vs South Africa: BCCI announces team for ODI series, KL Rahul wins captaincy

The Indian Cricket Control Board has announced the Indian team for the three-game ODI series against South Africa. Rohit Sharma is out of shape, which is why KL Rahul has been given the captaincy. On the other hand, fast pitcher Jasprit Bumrah has been named vice-captain.

Shikhar Dhawan, Washington Sundar and Deepak Chahar have returned to the Indian team for the ODI series against South Africa. Additionally, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Venkatesh Iyer, who performed well in IPL 2021 and national cricket, have been included in the squad.

Virat Kohli has also been included in the 18-man squad for the ODI series against South Africa. For the first time he will play as a batter. Even before the ongoing test series against South Africa, Rohit Sharma received the ODI team captaincy from Virat Kohli. However, he will not be able to participate in this series due to injury. In such a situation, KL Rahul has been appointed captain in his place.

BCCI has included six fast bowlers on the 18-member team. Includes Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Deepak Chahar, Famous Krishna, Shardul Thakur, and Mohammad Siraj.

Captain Rohit Sharma, off-roader Ravindra Jadeja and Hardik Pandya are not on this team due to injury.
