5 players from 2015 squad unlikely to feature in India's 2019 World Cup team

#3 Mohit Sharma

Due to the promising nature of the current pace attack, Mohit is not in the fray

After making a strong case with his performances in the 2013 and 2014 IPL editions while playing for Kings XI Punjab and Chennai Super Kings respectively, Mohit Sharma was drafted into the Indian team and was also awarded a chance to play the 2015 World Cup.

Coming into the team as a backup, the Ballabhgarh-born bowler proved the perfect foil to Umesh Yadav and Mohammad Shami by picking up 13 wickets in 8 matches at a decent economy of 4.98.

Since then Mohit has only played 6 matches owing to his drastic dip in form and scalped 8 wickets. With the likes of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah, Khaleel Ahmed, Mohammad Shami and Umesh Yadav in the mix, Sharma's chances for securing a spot in the World Cup squad are almost impossible.

The 31-year-old has thus far played 26 matches for India and picked up 31 wickets at an economy of 5.46 and a best performance of 4/22 against Bangladesh in 2014.
