On 23rd June, Friday BCCI Announced The Squads For The Caribbean Tour Against West Indies Starting On 12th July. However, Only Test & ODI Squads Are Announced As Of Now Because The T20i Series Is Scheduled To Take Place In The Later Stages Of The Tour, So There Is More Time To Think For The Selectors. With Transition Fuss Making Rounds In The Galleries Of Cricket Pandits & Fans, The Bcci Has Came Out With Squads Having Merely Little Changes In It. However, 2 Big Names Cheteshwar Pujara & Umesh Yadav have been Phased Out By The Selectors From The Indian Test Squad. In Place Of These 2 Seniors, Youngsters Like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Mukesh Kumar, and Navdeep Saini Have Been Named As Their Replacements For This Tour.
