So what happens if we crash out early? Will the seniors still dare to rest?

 

And what if after that our youngsters pwn NZ? That will be the end of senior era in t20s,  like it happened in 2007. 

 

Players like kohli will know this and be insecure 

T20 series starts from 17th Nov. Tests start from 25th Nov. The test squad will need to assemble in the bubble at least a week before.

 

Given complications around bubbles, I wouldn't be surprised to see almost the entire main squad playing again.

NZ have already announced the team for the India T20 series, it's the same squad as the one for the T20 WC.

 

Looking at schedules (and the SA A tour as well), a T20 series starting 3 days after the T20WC makes no sense at all. That too in such a crowded calendar. Should have kept it limited to a Test series.

Seniors will rest mostly for them at last minute or something will happen, ill be surprised if its a full strength squad

What will the likes of  Dhawan, Shaw, Kishan, SKY, Iyer rest for? They are not part of test team and should play.

 

Expected 15 man squad :-

 

Shikhar Dhawan(c)

Prithvi Shaw

Ishan Kishan(wkt)

Shreyas Iyer

Suryakumar Yadav

Hardik Pandya

Deepak Chahar

Washington Sundar

Harshal Patel

Avesh Khan

Yuzvendra Chahal

 

Others :- Ruturaj Gaekwad, Sanju Samson, Varun Chakraborty, Venkatesh Iyer and Axar Patel/Krunal Pandya. That's 16 overall. Looks like a good team for me.

Enough with Dhawan.

Time to completely move on. Plenty of other players that could easily captain. Its a learning experience too.

too many top 3 players. Jaiswal needs to do well for another season
