India are coming into this series on the back of a whitewash, they were brilliant in the ODIs against a New Zealand team who had no answers. India will be without their two important players Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. With Jasprit Bumrah still missing with an injury, Hardik Pandya will again have a young seam bowling unit to lead in the series.

However, despite the key players’ absence, team India looks rock-solid, studded with the likes of Suryakumar Yadav, Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan, Yuzvendra Chahal and Arshdeep Singh.

It will also be interesting to see if Prithvi Shaw makes his much-awaited international comeback in the very first game. He will fight a virtual contest with Gill, Ishan, and Ruturaj Gaikwad for an opening slot in the playing XI.

This series will also give much-needed opportunities to Rahul Tripathi and Deepak Hooda to upgrade their status from fringe players to regulars in the shortest format.

The responsibility will be on their batting unit comprising Finn Allen, Devon Conway, Glenn Phillips, Daryl Mitchell, and the sensational Michael Bracewell. It will also be a test for Mitchell Santner, who, besides batting and bowling, will have the additional responsibility of leadership.

Lockie Ferguson, who is below par in the ODIs, must perform as the leader of the bowling attack, by not only putting up impressive performances but also guiding the young guns like Henry Shipley, Jacob Duffy, and Blair Tickner.
