India Squad For England T20 Series: BCCI has announced the T20 series against England starting from January 22. Team India has performed brilliantly under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav and most of the same players who played in the series against Bangladesh and South Africa have got a chance for the five-match series against England. But a large number of fans are objecting that why Shivam Dubey and Rituraj Gaikwad, who played for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL, have not got a chance?
There were speculations that Abhishek Sharma might be dropped from the team due to lack of consistency in performance, but he is going to get another chance against England. It is also worth noting that not a single CSK player is included in the 15-member squad. This is the reason why fans are venting their anger on head coach Gautam Gambhir and the team management on social media.
A fan said that everyone knows that Gautam Gambhir has some personal enmity with MS Dhoni. For this reason Shivam Dubey has not been kept in the team. Another person wrote that Gaikwad was dropped again, even Shivam Dubey, who played the T20 World Cup final, was not given a place. Some other fans said that why is this injustice done to CSK fans only, Gaikwad and Dubey have been kept out. One person even crossed the limits and said that a different kind of politics is going on in the Indian team against the players of Chennai Super Kings.
Indian squad for T20 series against England: Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson, Tilak Verma, Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Axar Patel (vice-captain), Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Shami, Varun Chakraborty, Ravi Bishnoi, Washington Sundar, Dhruv Jurel.

#bcci @bcci We feel that Gautam Gambhir is harboring a personal grudge against MS Dhoni sir, which is why neither Rituraj Gaikwad nor Ishan Kishan was hired, such coaches should be thrown out.
