Since India’s disappointing performance in the T20 World Cup 2022, the team has adopted a new approach to T20 cricket. Instead of relying on senior players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and KL Rahul, the team is focusing on grooming young talents and providing them adequate rest ahead of the ODI World Cup 2023.
The recently concluded 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) serves as a platform to assess the potential uncapped youngsters who showcased exceptional skills during the two-month tournament. This presents an excellent opportunity to identify candidates who could be part of the T20 squad for the upcoming tour of the West Indies.
The tour of the West Indies includes Test and ODI series, followed by a T20I series consisting of five matches. While the squads for the ODI and Test series have been announced by the BCCI, the T20I squad is yet to be revealed. Let’s now explore the potential players who could be included in India’s T20 squad for the series against the West Indies.
