The BCCI announced India’s 15-man squad for the two-match Test series against West Indies starting October 2 at home. Ravindra Jadeja was named vice-captain with Rishabh Pant out due to a fracture. Jasprit Bumrah is included despite fitness concerns. Karun Nair and Abhimanyu Easwaran were dropped after poor form in England, while Devdutt Padikkal returns. Left-arm spinner Manav Suthar may get a maiden call-up following strong India A performances. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar said selections were based on form and fitness, adding that Pant is expected back for the upcoming South Africa series. (PC: BCCI)
