Will captain in T20 for the first time
Jasprit Bumrah will captain the Indian team for the first time in T20. Earlier, he has taken the command of India in Test matches. Bumrah played the last match for India about 11 months ago in September last year. He was just coming back from injury. But got injured again only after one match. Because of this, he could not participate in the T20 World Cup as well as in the IPL.
The return of the famous Krishna too
Along with Jasprit Bumrah, the famous fast bowler Krishna will also make a comeback. He played his last international match in August last year. He was unable to play due to a stress fracture. Along with this, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shivam Dubey have also got a chance. Shivam Dubey, who was included in the Indian team for the Asian Games, did wonders for Chennai Super Kings in the IPL.
No key player has got a place in this team. Jitesh Sharma has been kept with Sanju Samson as the wicketkeeper. Jitesh played the role of finisher for Punjab Kings in IPL. Along with this, Rinku Singh and Tilak Verma are also in the team.
