The BCCI has named the squad for the Indian team for the upcoming T20Is. India will be having series against England and Ireland, which will be followed by the Asian Games. Shreyas Iyer has been named as the captain, while various players handed maiden call ups.
The Indian team for the upcoming series have been announced by the BCCI. A meeting was held at the BCCI Headquarters, where the main focus was on the future of the T20I side. India had already won the T20 World Cup twice in a row, while the selectors wanted to build a team for the upcoming edition.
Here's a look at the Indian team for the upcoming series:
- England Series: Shreyas (C), Tilak (VC), Abhishek, Samson, Ishan, Dube, Nitish, Axar, Sundar, Chakravarthy, Suryavanshi, Bishnoi, Siraj, Harshit, Arshdeep, Prince
- Ireland Series: Shreyas Iyer (C), Abhishek, Sanju, Ishan, Suryavanshi, Dube, Tilak, Nitish, Axar, Sundar, Varun, Ravi, Siraj, Rana, Arshdeep
- Asian Games: Shreyas Iyer (C), Abhishek, Sanju, Ishan, Dube, Tilak, Nitish, Axar, Sundar, Varun, Bishnoi, Rana, Arshdeep, Suryavanshi & Bumrah
The Indian team looks well balanced across all aspects in the upcoming series. It will be a bit challenging for the team in the tournament of England, as India will be having a T20I series in the English territory after a long time.
Our Take
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has finally gotten his chance to play for the Indian team. After a tremendous season in the IPL, he deserves to be a part of the Indian team. Along with that, Shreyas Iyer has impressed everyone with his captaincy in this format, which helped him become the skipper. Players such as Ravi Bishnoi, Harshit Rana, and more are also available to make a comeback now.
