These days Indian players are busy playing IPL, and after that, Indian team players will go to England to play the WTC final. After this, the Indian team will play Afghanistan on their home ground. The BCCI has not made any official announcement regarding the dates of the 3 ODI series with Afghanistan, but this series will be played after the World Test Championship. If sources are to be believed, this ODI series can be played between June 23 and June 30.
Rohit-Kohli And Shami Rested From The Afghanistan Series
The good news for the players who impressed people with their stellar performances in the Indian Premier League is that Rohit Sharma, Mohammed Shami, Virat Kohli and Mohammed Siraj will feature in India’s 3 ODI series against Afghanistan after the IPL gets over. They can be given a chance by providing rest.
According to media reports, the players of the Indian team will go to England to play the World Test Championship (WTC) match against Australia, which is why they can be rested from this series. Players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jitesh Sharma, Tilak Verma and Rinku Singh can get a chance in this ODI series.
Hardik Will Get The Captaincy
According to media reports, Hardik Pandya will be given the responsibility of captaining India by resting Rohit Sharma as well as other senior players in the ODI series to be held between Afghanistan and India, and if sources are to be believed, not only Afghanistan but then West Indies and Ireland. Even on the tour, only young players of the IPL will be taken instead of senior players.
Both Asia Cup and World Cup are to be organized this year, and Indian team players have to prepare for Asia Cup after that World Cup, which takes a lot of time. In such a situation, the senior players of the Indian team will be given rest so that the Indian team can keep themselves fit for the Asia Cup 2023 and then the World Cup 2023.
Here Is The Possible 15-Man Squad Against Afghanistan
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Rinku Singh, Hardik Pandya (c), Varun Chakravarthy, Axar Patel (vc), Jitesh Sharma, Prabhsimran Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ravi Bishnoi, Kuldeep Yadav, Washington Sundar, Mohit Sharma, Arshdeep Singh, Umran Malik.
