England vs India 2022: Official T20 and ODI Series Players Squad List

Rohit Sharma back as captain as we look at the official squad players list for Team India for the 2022 T20 and ODI series vs England. 

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Thursday, night officially announced the squad for Team India for the 2022 T20 and ODI series vs England. An 18-member squad is selected for the T20 series. Whereas a 17-member squad is announced for the ODI series.

The overall squad seems to be on the expected lines, but with a small twist. Rohit Sharma returns as the Captain of Team India in both formats. But interestingly, Team India announced two separate squads for the T20 series. There’s an 18-member squad for the 1st T20I. But a few members from the Test Team replaces a few members from the 1st T20I for the 2nd and 3rd T20I. 

The squad for the 1st T20I vs England is the same that played against Ireland; only with Rohit Sharma added as the Captain. But for the 2nd and 3rd T20I, Team India have added Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah, and Ravindra Jadeja. The ones that go out include Ruturaj Gaikwad, Rahul Tripathi, Sanju Samson, Venkatesh Iyer, and Arshdeep Singh. 

Even though the likes of Arshdeep Singh, Rahul Tripathi, and Venkatesh Iyer didn’t get a chance to play against Ireland, they still remain among the probables for the 2022 T20 World Cup. Sanju Samson could find it tough to digest. He scored a brilliant 50 against Ireland, and now doesn’t manage to retain his place for the England T20 series. 

Nevertheless, here’s the official squad list for Team India for the 1st T20I and 2nd & 3rd T20I vs England. 

England vs India 2022 – Official T20 Series Squad for Team India for 1st T20I:

  • 2nd T20I // July 09 // Birmingham
  • 3rd T20I // July 10 // Nottingham

ODI Series Squad for Team India 

Coming to the ODI series squad, India have gone for a horses-for-courses approach. They have left out a lot of T20 specialists, and selected players who are Ideally suited for the ODIs. Among the fresh players included only for the ODIs include Shikhar Dhawan, Mohammed Shami, Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Siraj, and Shardul Thakur. 

The ones that are left out include Dinesh Karthik, Deepak Hooda, Avesh Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Umran Malik, and Ravi Bishnoi. It is not a surprise that all these players are left out. They are considered as T20 specialists, and others offer better value than them in ODIs. 

However, Team India could have selected 18 players for the ODIs too; just like the T20 series. Had they done that, one of Deepak Hooda or Ravi Bishnoi could have been given an opportunity. Nevertheless, here’s the official squad list for Team India for the 2022 ODI series vs England. 

England vs India 2022 – Official ODI Series Squad for Team India: 

Batters: Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav & Virat Kohli 

Wks: Ishan Kishan & Rishabh Pant 

All-rounders: Axar Patel, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja 

Bowlers: Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Shardul Thakur & Yuzvendra Chahal
