Today’s announcement of Indian team for Australia series, All rounder Yuvraj Singh and fast bowler Ashish Nehra have been in India’s T20I squad. Yuvraj has not played for India since the 2014 World T20 final. Nehra’s last international game was in 2011. Indian Selectors have rewarded 23-year-old left-arm pacer Brainder Sran with a maiden ODI call-up. Mohammed Shami and Ravindra Jadeja were recalled to both the ODI and T20 squads. Shami made the cut after completing his recovery from a knee injury he suffered during the previous tour of Australia, in December 2014, while Jadeja’s rich vein of form in the Ranji Trophy and the recently concluded South Africa Tests also earned him a spot. Suresh Raina has been dropped from the ODI squad following a poor home series against South Africa. Ambati Rayudu, Stuart Binny and Amit Mishra did not find place in Indian team.
