Belfast T20s to go ahead.. security heightened and as per Irish intelligence sought by Irish board there are no immediate far right demonstration scheduled in the area. @Gollum

 

Ground has limited capacity almost only 4k will be interesting how many Indian spectators attend these games.

Eager to see how Iyer bats   India doesn't need the old version of him he needs a higher strike rate   I'm looking forward to seeing him replicate his IPL intent

No Samson ? Also do we need all three of Nitish, Dube and Axar ? I wont mind if he was rested for the series but he is in the squad. May be Samson in place or NKR/Dube and rest all is perfect. Samson bats top 3 if he plays or rests.

Samson can be back for T20Is vs England. 

 

This series should be used for grooming rookies.

NKR and Axar are our likely 7 and 8 in WC 27.

 

Need to give them as much game time as possible in these roles.

Dube can be rested. But Samson is top 3 as you said.

 

Samson at 3 means Vice Kaptaan Tilak at 6 .. and then our lower order may lack firepower. 

 

Basically, as we have to incorporate both Shreyas and Tilak, as they are C and VC,   team composition will be messed up if we want all 3 of Sooryavanshi, Abhishek, Samson.

 

What is the solution ?

But can rest him vs a weak team. Like we have rested Bumrah.

After ipl he didn't even play a single match he need some match practice before England series

Then Sooryavanshi will be dropped.
