Star batters, Suryakumar Yadav and Sanju Samson make their return to the team, while Hyderabad’s batter, Rahul Tripathi has received his maiden India call-up. Young pacers such as Umran Malik and Arshdeep Singh haven’t got the chance to represent in India in the ongoing T20 series against South Africa. The duo has been retained in the squad as well.

Amidst all the selections, there were some players who were unlucky to not have made the cut. In this article, we will be taking a look at three players who have been unlucky to miss out on the Ireland tour.

Rahul Tewatia has been showcasing his mettle for the last few overs in the Indian T20 League 2022. He is a handy spinner and has an incredible ability to finish games. This season, Tewatia played for Gujarat and helped the team win a few games with his finishing abilities. In 16 matches, he managed to score 217 run at a strike rate off close to 150. However, despite his valuable contributions, the management has overlooked his services for the tour.

Mohsin Khan was one of the finds of the Indian T20 League 2022. He became the lead fast bowler for Lucknow after making his debut. Khan brought a different angle and could extract unusual bounce off the surface. The players struggled to take him on the power play. His economy of 5/97 suggests how good he was during the tournament. Overall, he picked 14 wickets in just 9 matches at an average of 14.07.

  1. Shikhar Dhawan

Having being ignored in both T20I series against South Africa and Ireland, it is now pretty clear that Shikhar Dhawan is no longer India’s T20 scheme of things. He has been a prolific run-scorer in the Indian T20 League and has scored truckload of runs in the last few years in the cash-rich league. However, the management is rather interesting in giving opportunities to young batters.
