Star pacer Jasprit Bumrah is expected to join India’s 15-member squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, pending fitness confirmation. The selection committee, led by Ajit Agarkar, will finalize the squad on January 18 in Mumbai. Bumrah, recovering from a back injury, might play in the ODI series against England for fitness assessment. Despite stellar form in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, Karun Nair has been excluded due to lack of recent international exposure. Sanju Samson, part of the T20I squad, also misses out, reportedly for skipping domestic tournaments. India aims to finalize its lineup for the crucial tournament.
