ICC Champions Trophy 2017: Probable Indian Squad

All-rounders

Jadhav has been a surprise hit

Kedar Jadhav

Since the New Zealand series, India have found a new star in Kedar Jadhav. The diminutive batsman from Maharashtra was a big part of India's 3-2 win over New Zealand where he displayed his explosive batting and more useful part-time bowling as well.

So far in IPL 2017, he has continued that good form. With the all-round option that he provides, he is a certain starter in the Champions Trophy, even if conditions aren't likely to be conducive to his style of bowling.

Hardik Pandya

So far in IPL 2017, Hardik Pandya has proven to be an excellent asset to Mumbai Indians. On the field, he has been dynamic. With the ball, he has shown he is adept at both bowling at the start of the innings during the powerplay and at the death. He has also showcased his impressive finishing prowess with the bat.

With two new balls, Pandya will be even more effective at the start in England, where there is more assistance for the seam bowlers. His batting lends more depth to the line-up and it won't be a huge surprise if he starts every game in the Champions Trophy.
