T20 Series:
This will be followed by the T20 series between India and England on July 7, 9 and 10. BCCI President Ganguly had announced that the team selected for the series would play regularly until the T20 World Cup series, so there was great anticipation over the series.
Delay:
It has been reported that the young squad that fielded against Ireland in the first T20 match will be fielded due to delays in the selection of players.
The next two T20 matches will be played between the Indian senior team and the Indian XI squad for the T20 World Cup, which starts in Australia in October.
Rohit is not:
Thus, it is clear that Rohit will not be the captain of the team for the first T20 match. Yes, Hardik Pandya will be the captain in the first match. Dinesh Karthik’s place has also been confirmed.
As Dinesh Karthik continues to play well, he is expected to be included in the XI squad for the next two matches with the T20 World Cup in mind.
Indian Prospective XI Team (First T20 against England): Ishan Kishan, Rudraj Kejriwal, Deepak Haida, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Akshar Patel, Dinesh Karthik, Akshar Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan, Yujvendra Sahal, Umran Malik.
