India vs Afghanistan: Ishan Kishan back, Prince Yadav gets first ODI call-up

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the 15-member squad for the three-match ODI series against Afghanistan starting on June 14 in Dharamsala. Shubman Gill will lead the side featuring Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya after the Ajit Agarkar-chaired selection committee ended speculation about the inclusion of the two senior players. However, their selection remains subject to eligibility approval.

Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant has been dropped from the ODI squad after being removed as the vice-captain of the Test team. In his place, Ishan Kishan returns to India’s ODI setup for the first time since 2023.
