BCCI chief selectors are mulling on a few changes in the World Cup squad. According to the recent reports, Shreyas Iyer is still not fit enough to play continuously for India in the World Cup. He was even left out of the game against Pakistan due to the back spasm.

On the other hand, Shardul Thakur is also expected to make way for another player in the squad. Thakur has failed to impress so far in Asia Cup 2023 and is yet to make an impact. Team India selectors are expected to include Sanju Samson in place of Shreyas Iyer and Yuzvendra Chahal in place of Shardul Thakur in the World Cup 2023 squad.
