5 July, Mumbai: India’s Twenty20 International (T20I) squad for their forthcoming tour of the West Indies was released on Wednesday by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
As stated in an official BCCI release, “The Senior Men’s Selection Committee on Wednesday picked India’s squad for the upcoming five-match T20I series against West Indies to be played in the Caribbean Islands and in Florida, USA.” Since Rohit Sharma won’t be around to lead the team, Hardik Pandya will be in charge with Suryakumar Yadav as his deputy.
Another key player missing from the T20I team is Virat Kohli; his replacement, Sanju Samson, would likely bat third.
After being left out of the Test and ODI teams, left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh has made his way back into the Indian team.
