India has revealed its squad for the T20 series against Afghanistan, once again appointing Rohit Sharma as the captain for the white ball series. Additionally, Virat Kohli, India’s talisman, has made his return in this series as well, delighting fans who have eagerly anticipated seeing both Sharma and Kohli in T20 action together. The inclusion of Kohli and Sharma in the squad by the BCCI has drawn attention, while several other prominent players have been left out.
This T20 series against Afghanistan holds significance for India as it marks their final opportunity to assess players before the T20 World Cup slated for June. With the announcement of the squad against Afghanistan, it seems the Indian team’s composition for the T20 World Cup is close to being finalized. Consequently, it becomes easier to speculate about the potential composition of the T20 World Cup squad based on this recent squad selection against Afghanistan.
