India Selectors to Finalize ODI and T20I Squads for West Indies Series

Analysed 15 Sept 2026·4 sources analysed·Delhi, India·Sports
India Selectors to Finalize ODI and T20I Squads for West Indies SeriesPreviousNext

India's national selectors, led by Ajit Agarkar, are set to finalize the ODI and T20I squads for the upcoming home series against West Indies, featuring three ODIs starting September 27 and five T20Is from October 6. Key considerations include Rishabh Pant's potential return to white-ball cricket amid Ishan Kishan's unavailability and Hardik Pandya's fitness to bowl and field fully after injury. The T20I squad is expected to resemble the Asian Games team, while the ODI selection faces challenges due to limited seam-bowling all-rounders and player injuries.
