IND vs WI: India Playing 11 for the first T20I against West Indies Prediction

IND vs WI: India’s team is currently going through a transition in the T20 team. Under the leadership of Hardik Pandya, quite a few youngsters have got the opportunity and it is expected that there will be some debut caps in this tour as well. 

Shubman Gill is likely to be rested for the T20Is to manage his workload, considering the Asia Cup and the World Cup around the corner. Therefore it is likely that Ruturaj Gaikwad will open the innings. It is likely that Yashasvi Jaiswal will get his debut cap and will open the innings. 

Suryakumar Yadav is expected to retain their place at No.3 as he has been exceptional in whatever games they have played for India. Sanju Samson is also likely to make a comeback into the team and keep wickets. The keeper-batter is expected to bat at No.4.

Rinku Singh, the man of five sixes, is also likely to make his debut in the T20 series and is expected to play a finishing role with skipper Hardik Pandya, who is expected to play a crucial role with the ball as well. Axar Patel will be the second all-rounder in the team. 

Umran Malik, Arshdeep Singh and Shivam Mavi are likely to be the pace trio in the team whereas Ravi Bishnoi is expected to make his comeback into the team after his exceptional performances in IPL and domestic circuit.
