India's squad for the Bangladesh tour

   The squad for the Bangladesh squad which was to be decided by the board has been released. There are several players added to the orginal squad and some leaving the original squad. 

    The test squad have a major change of bringing back the veretan Indian off spinner Harbhajan Singh in the squad again to prove himself. It may be a sent off to the Indian team for Harbhajan Singh. He played his last test match against Australia in the year 2013. He will be accompanied by Ravi Ashwin in the spin attack for the Indian team. The main reason for bringing back him in the squad was that the Bangladesh team have 6 left handed batsmen which will need the help of another offie. 

    The question for the selection of Suresh Raina was brought up in the meeting. But the committee decided to drop him due to twin duck in the test comeback after 2 years. The committee had no choice for the pacer Mohammed Shami as he was out of the IPL as well due to knee injury after the World Cup. The allrounder Ravindra Jadeja was also not a part in the available options. So the team lost Suresh Raina, Mohammed Shami & Ravindra Jadeja and brought Harbhajan Singh in the squad.
