In a bold move ahead of the Cricket World Cup 2023, India has brought in KL Rahul to the squad, despite him being out of competitive cricket since May. With the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup underway, there's much attention on the two players who didn't make the cut from the Asia Cup team and KL Rahul's return to form.
Key Inclusions and Exclusions

KL Rahul has secured his spot in the World Cup team, having cleared a recent fitness test in Bengaluru. However, Tilak Varma, Prasidh Krishna, and reserve player Sanju Samson didn't make the team from the 17-man Asia Cup squad.
Stellar Performance by Kishan

Ishan Kishan continues his impressive run, marking his place as a wicketkeeper-batter, thanks to his consistent ODI performances. His notable 82-run score against Pakistan adds to his impressive tally.
Suryakumar's Selection

Despite being recognized more for his T20 prowess, Suryakumar Yadav has been selected for the squad. His average ODI performance hasn't deterred the selectors who see potential in his gameplay.
Rahul's Recovery

KL Rahul's inclusion comes after recovering from a tendon injury. Undergoing extensive rehab, he has been training diligently at the NCA. Both Ajit Agarkar and Rahul Dravid have shown confidence in his recuperation and readiness.
Bowling Strategy

The bowling lineup will witness Bumrah spearheading the attack. The absence of a specialist offspinner is notable, but the inclusion of Jadeja, Patel, and Yadav ensures versatility in spin. Agarkar believes the chosen bowlers offer the best balance for the 50-over game.
Conclusion
India's squad for the 2023 World Cup promises a mix of experience and fresh talent. With Rahul's return and the notable exclusions, the team's balance seems tactically planned to handle the challenges ahead. The forthcoming matches against Australia post-Asia Cup will further shape the final team, gearing them up for their first clash in Chennai on October 8th.
