The team selection committee of India headed by Chairman of selectors Krishnamachari Srikkanth announced the final 15-man squad to defend the World Twenty20 title in England next month.
The squad included,
- Mahendra Singh Dhoni (captain),

- Harbhajan Singh,
- Zaheer Khan,

However, a few names from the 2007 World Cup winning squad missed the bus to England. These include Ajit Agarkar, Piyush Chawla, hard- hitting batsman Robin Uthappa, S Sreesanth, fighting fitness problems and Joginder Sharma, who hasn’t come up with anything exceptional so far in the IPL.
