India vs West Indies 1st T20I: After a successful outing in the Tests and T20Is, Team India under Hardik Pandya’s leadership will hope for a similar outcome as the focus shifts to the shorter format. However, the series will also be a good testing ground for the promising talents, who have been elevated to the international stage after proving their mettle in IPL.
Yashasvi Jaiswal enjoyed a superb outing with Rajasthan Royals and he produced a top-notch show in the Test series. The youngster will now look to carry forward the same in another format. Tilak Varma is another such star, who broke into the national side after a spectacular IPL.
In the absence of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, both Pandya and his deputy Suryakumar Yadav will be the key men in the middle-order, with Sanju Samson adding more depth in what appears to be a formidable batting line-up.
The bowling front lacks a bit of experience but Arshdeep Singh, who has already played a World Cup, will be spearheading India’s attack alongside Mukesh Kumar.
West Indies, on the other end, would look to end series on a promising note and they too boast of a star-studded lineup filled with T20 specialists. The team led by Rovman Powell have the likes of Nicholas Pooran and Shimron Hetmyer at their disposal. Both stars are dangerous in terms of power hitting, which could hurt India if they lack any discipline while bowling.
