5 players who missed out in India's squad for the ICC Champions Trophy

#1 Gautam Gambhir

This 35-year-old veteran would feel hard done by his non-selection in the side given his current form and the success he has achieved over the past couple of years or so.

He has proved to be one of the best captains in the IPL as well and has lifted the title twice with Kolkata Knight Riders. Under Gautam Gambhir’s leadership this year, KKR have looked an extremely solid unit and with the way they are going, they could be well on their way to achieving their third IPL title.

With KL Rahul’s absence in the side, Gambhir should have probably been the preferred choice over the inconsistent Shikhar Dhawan but the latter has proved to be successful in ICC tournaments in the past hence the selectors would have kept that in mind will choosing the squad.
