AFP[/caption] India are coming off an inspiring 3-1 Test series win over Joe Root-led England Test side, and the hosts’ T20I squad features some new faces in Suryakumar Yadav, Rahul Tewatia and Ishan Kishan. Newcomer Varun Chakravarthy has repeatedly failed fitness tests thus delaying his eligibility, and is set to miss the series, according to a report in ESPNCricinfo. Meanwhile, yorker specialist T Natarajan is yet to join the squad after sustaining a shoulder niggle. News agency PTI had reported that the National Cricket Academy (NCA) medical staff were trying to get Natarajan at least for the later part of the series. Bhuvneshwar Kumar will lead the bowling line-up which consists of Navdeep Saini and Shardul Thakur too, while Jasprit Bumrah and the injured Mohammed Shami have been rested. India’s spin department consists of Yuzvendra Chahal, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel and Rahul Tewatia. In a notable development, skipper Virat Kohli confirmed that the Men in Blue’s opening pair would be Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul, while also asserting that Ravichandran Ashwin was not part of the team’s limited-overs set-up as far as Sundar performed well. England have in their ranks multi-talented cricketers like Ben Stokes, Sam Curran and Moeen Ali, while their pace department consists of Jofra Archer, Chris Jordan and Mark Wood. Adil Rashid is also among their ranks as a wrist spinner.
