New Delhi [India], Oct 11 (ANI): Wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant has been included in the ODI team as India announced a 14-member squad for the first two one-day internationals of the upcoming five-match series against West Indies.

While Mohammed Shami has made a comeback to the limited overs side, names like Bhuveneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah are missing from the squad.

In middle order, right-hand batsmen Manish Pandey and Ambati Raydu are given a crucial chance to prove their credibility against not-so-experienced West Indies side.

In the spin department, India will continue to rely on the trio of Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, and Yuzvendra Chahal.

India are slated to play a five-match ODI series against West Indies from October 21 to November 1.

Virat Kohli (Capt), Rohit Sharma (VC), Shikhar Dhawan, Ambati Rayudu, Manish Pandey, MS Dhoni (wk), Rishabh Pant, R Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Khaleel Ahmed, Shardul Thakur, KL Rahul. (ANI)
