The selection committee, led by Ajit Agarkar, is set to announce India's 15-member ODI squad for the upcoming series against New Zealand on January 3. The series includes three ODIs and five T20Is, scheduled from January 11 to 31. While the T20I squad has already been named and is slated to play in the 2026 T20 World Cup, the ODI team is expected to feature changes. Notably, Shubman Gill, who was controversially dropped from the World Cup squad, is rumored to be returning to lead the ODI team.
