Harshit Rana has been included in Team India's squad for the ODI series against England. The surprising thing is that India has a bowler who deserved to be included in this series more than him but Gambhir ignored him.

Harshit Rana: Jasprit Bumrah could not be a part of the ODI series against England due to injury. He has been ruled out of the ODI series due to a back injury in the last Test match against Australia. In his place, Harshit Rana has been given a chance in Team India for the England series. The surprising thing is that India has a bowler who deserved to be included in this series more than him but Gautam Gambhir ignored him. After all, who is this bowler who was more deserving than Harshit Rana and why, let's know..?

This bowler was more entitled to play the ODI series than Harshit Rana!

Let us tell you that Mohammed Siraj has not been given a chance for the ODI series and Champions Trophy against England. Arshdeep has been selected in place of Siraj for the Champions Trophy. At the same time, despite Jasprit Bumrah being out of the ODI series against England, Harshit Rana and not Siraj has been included in the 15-member squad.

The surprising thing is that Siraj could have been the best option for Bumrah because on the basis of experience, he has played the most matches for India and he tries to prove himself in every condition, but due to not performing well in the last few matches, he has been thrown out of the team like a fly in milk.

Mohammed Siraj has performed brilliantly for Team India

It was because of Mohammed Siraj that the Indian team won the Asia Cup 2023. It is known that Siraj took six wickets and conceded 21 runs in the final match against Sri Lanka. On the one hand, his bowling played a very important role in helping the Indian team win the match. Not only this, when Bumrah was injured, he handled the bowling of Team India for a long time. This is the reason why Siraj deserved a place in Team India before Harshit Rana. But he was shown the way out of the ODI series against England.

Siraj's performance in the last 2 years has been like this

Let us tell you that Mohammad Siraj took 44 wickets in 25 matches in 2023 at an economy of 5 runs. His best performance is to take 3 wickets for 21 runs. In 2024, Siraj took 3 wickets on 3 March.
