The All-India Senior Selection Committee has announced the India Cricket Team for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy.

Dashing left hand batsman Yuvraj Singh has made his way to Indian team. After his successful comeback to Indian ODI squad, the BCCI selectors have again showed confidence in his ability.

The team is as following:

Virat Kohli (C), Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (wk), Yuvraj Singh, Kedar Jadhav, Hardik Pandya, R Ashwin, R Jadeja, Mohd. Shami, Umesh Yadav, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah and Manish Pandey.

Yuvraj was the Man of the Tournament in the 2011 World Cup which India won, and was also the biggest star in the 2007 T-20 World Cup triumph.

Indian fans would hope India will defend the eight nation Champions Trophy title, which they won in 2013.
