India Considers Team Changes Ahead of T20I Decider Against West Indies

India Considers Team Changes Ahead of T20I Decider Against West IndiesPreviousNext

India's T20I series against West Indies is tied 2-2 ahead of the decider in Bengaluru. Former assistant coach Abhishek Nayar suggests any team changes should focus on bowling rather than disrupting the batting order, emphasizing that Vaibhav Sooryavanshi should only play as an opener if selected. The 15-year-old, who debuted in July, has played eight T20Is with a strong strike rate but has yet to feature in this series. His selection record varies under coaches Gautam Gambhir and VVS Laxman, with more opportunities under Laxman.
