Raina has been out of the Indian squad for quite a long time now. He was last seen donning the Indian colours earlier in the year during the T20 series against England. Despite an impressive showing in the series, the southpaw has been overlooked for all the proceeding limited overs series which happened after that.

He has undoubtedly been an asset to the Indian limited overs team and especially after performing well in the IPL and the domestic circuit, Raina should have been included. But if he continues to impress the selectors, will they be forced to bring him for the home series against New Zealand and Australia?

Here is the squad: Virat Kohli (Captain), Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma (vice captain), KL Rahul, Manish Pandey, Ajinkya Rahane, Kedar Jadhav, MS Dhoni (wicket keeper), Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Jasprit Bumrah, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Shardul Thakur.
