After a clean sweep in the ODI series, now Team India will face the Caribbean team in the T20 series. The first match will play at the Brian Lara Cricket Stadium in Trinidad. The Indian team is also a favorite for the series. If the team in blue wins all the five matches of the series, then it will make a new record.
Rohit & Co will become the team to beat the Caribbean team for the most number of T20 matches at home. At present, the English team has won the maximum number of T20Is in West Indies, 6 T20Is. Similarly, Pakistan’s team is at number two. They have also made 6 matches to their name.
Team India has played 4 matches against West Indies on their home so far. The team in blue has faced 2 wins and 2 losses. Hence in which form the team is playing could become the number-1 by winning all the five matches.
A quite different squad as compared to ODIs
In the T20 series, along with India’s full-time captain of all format Rohit Sharma, experienced players like Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Rishabh Pant and R Ashwin are returning. These players were not part of the team in the ODI series. Hardik Pandya the man of the series in the ODI series against England, can once again be seen doing wonders for Team India.
who will open with Rohit?
At the same time, it will be interesting to see who will open the Indian innings with Rohit Sharma. Wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant was given a chance against England, but he could not succeed. In such a situation, Ishan is a good option present in the team. However, team India is experimenting with some things in every series for their preparation for ICC T20 World Cup 2022.
