Jadeja will not feature in the first three ODIs
While the chances of Ravichandran Ashwin finding a place in the team for the ODI series did seem bleak, his spin partner Ravindra Jadeja could have been given an opportunity, at least for the initial part of the series.
Jadeja began the 2017 Champions Trophy on a positive note, but ended with a whimper, and with no Test cricket for a couple of months and him not opting for a county contract, he could have done himself some good by getting some game time.
