Kaul is our back up pacer!! Siraj perhaps picked for the wrong format again. 

 

While they made changes to the team, should have added Pant in these squads as well :(

Checked Siraj's List A record - 31 matches, 56 wickets@23, with a ER of 5.5 and SR of 25.1

 

Not too bad actually. T20s look to be his weakest suit and thankfully he has not been picked for those. Could still do relatively better in ODIs.  

Siraj picked for T20 also, see squad list in OP.

This pathetic trundling university graduate kaul keeps getting chances :facepalm:.

 Siraj again picked for wrong format, isn't cut out for odis, gives lot of width and buckle under pressure.

Mayank looked in great touch and confidence should have been there in place of kl Rahul.

Wah re chewt selectors,keep giving moments of buffoonery

Siraj when was setting world on fire wasn't getting picked even in the squad

Now he is been picked for lois,that too in small parks of NZ,where they will shatter his remaining confidence by mauling him to dust,

At least they spared us by not picking him in t20s 

Well Kaul seems to be fulfilling the trundler quota,when we have zaleel in the ranks
