India pick Unadkat for Australia ODIs Rohit to miss first game

Paving the way to a World Cup at home, India have named left-arm pacer Jaydev Unadkat in the ODI crew against Australia. Likewise, harking back to the 18-man crew are left-arm turning allrounders Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel, and center request hitter Shreyas Iyer.

India will miss the administrations of Rohit Sharma for the principal ODI - who will be inaccessible because of family responsibilities, BCCI said in a delivery. Hardik Pandya will lead the side in Rohit's place.

Any semblance of Shahbaz Ahmed and Rajat Patidar - who were essential for the crew for the New Zealand series last month - have been forgotten about. KL Rahul returns as well, to the detriment of KS Bharat, yet he isn't the assigned bad habit commander of the side this time around.

India will make a beeline for the third and fourth Test against Australia - in Indore and Ahmedabad separately - with the very crew that procured the successes at Nagpur and Delhi to assist the group with holding the Boundary Gavaskar Prize. Jaydev Unadkat, who was delivered to play in the Ranji Prize last where he drove Saurashtra to their subsequent title, will be back with the crew for the third Test, beginning on Walk 1. The fourth apparatus of the series will be played from Walk 9.
