Bhubaneswar: Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer, who were excluded from the list of team India players , have returned to the list. These two players were dropped from one day, and a T20 match earlier. The main highlight is the inclusion of these two players as they were dropped as per the BCCI order they were not playing domestic cricket. Then Shreyas Iyer played Ranji matches and performed really well. The IPL performance also gave a good impact for their comeback. Ishan Kishan is placed in grade C and Iyer in grade B.
Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja and Jaspreet Bumrah are in the A+ category. The first three players retired from the T20 format last year. Bumrah is the only player amongst these four who is continuing in all the formats and retained in A+ category.
