After successfully whitewashing West Indies in ODIs, the T20 series is set to start today. India will play 5 T20Is against West Indies and this series is extremely crucial for India as the road to the T20 WorldCup is near. Team India management is keen on this series as they are looking to make up the squad for the WorldCup.
The likes of Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah are rested. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is set to come into the mix again. It is a task on hand for Rohit Sharma as West Indies’s strongest format is T20s.
Rohit Sharma might partner with either Ishan Kishan or Rishabh Pant in the opening fixture. For third place, Deepak Hooda and Shreyas Iyer are competing. Suryakumar Yadav finds a comfortable place at the 4th. Hardik Pandya and Axar Patel will share the allrounder duties. R Ashwin might be ahead of Kuldeep Yadav. Harshal Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Arshdeep Singh will be the medium-pace unit.
