Hardik Pandya could not return to the team due to injury, so the Indian cricket team selected Suryakumar Yadav as the captain. It is as if India has reorganized the T20 team. Many key players have been rested. Rohit, Virat, KL Rahul, Bumrah, Shami, Jadeja, Kuldeep are not in the team. They are rested. So Surya Kumar Yadav has an important responsibility. India is going to play against Australia without some important batsmen. It remains to be seen how well India can do against Australia as the 2023 World Cup champions.
This young squad has been taken based on their domestic records so there is no doubt that they are potential players for the upcoming T20 WC next year and starting from this series India will be looking for making the perfect squad for that tournament.
Interesting fact is this squad is filled with mostly left hand batters while the WC squad failed to have one in the middle order so looking forward to see how the young team is gonna approach the team that is coming out from WC win.
Can India make the dent straight away on Australia?
