The Indian squad for the next two Tests is expected to be named in the coming days

The Indian squad selection for the last two Tests of the England tour has been delayed due to the upheaval in the selection panel. The squad announcement has been postponed by a few days following the reappointment of Gagan Khoda and Jatin Paranjpe as senior national selectors.

"The meeting has been postponed by a few days, as we need to give time to Khoda and Paranjpe to be available to join the panel," TOI quoted a BCCI source.

Khoda and Paranjpe had earlier been removed from the selection panel for not fulfilling the Lodha Committee's requirement of being former Test cricketers. However, after the Supreme Court's intervention, the pair will now rejoin MSK Prasad, Devang Gandhi and Sarandeep Singh in the panel.
