One of the many debutants under Constantine, Vinit Rai is yet another questionable inclusion in the squad. The 20-year-old central midfielder has seldom featured for his club Delhi Dynamos in the previous two ISL seasons.

Other central midfielders like Nandhakumar S and Lallianzuala Chhangte have been overlooked, which has left fans wondering whether the selection process to the national team is really effective.

Rai has played just five games in the last two years and has failed to convince in Minerva Punjab and Delhi Dynamos. He showed a lot of promise when he landed on the big stage back in 2014 when he made his professional debut with Dempo Sports in the I-League. But the Assam-based midfielder has been inconsistent to say the least.
