IND vs WI, 1st T20 LIVE STREAMING: After the concluded ODI series which India won very convincingly with a margin of 3-0, it is now time for the action to gravitate towards T20Is. The India team management had decided to rest a few senior players including Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Virat Kohli, and Rishabh Pant in the ODI series. In their absence, the young Indian team fared well as they scripted history by clinching the series 3-0. This was one historic ODI series victory as skipper Shikhar Dhawan became the first Indian skipper to inflict a clean sweep on West Indies in their backyard.
Now moving on to the T20I series, team India will play the series opener against West Indies on July 29, 2022. The five-match T20I series which will be played between both teams are expected to play out evenly, contrary to what was witnessed in the ODI series. Skipper Rohit Sharma is coming off a break and he will lead the Indian side which is expected to have a positive influence on the team. KL Rahul will not be a part of the Indian team as he has not joined the squad in the Caribbean islands. Ravindra Jadeja's fitness too remains a matter of concern which will open up a space for Axar Patel who played a blinder of an innings in the second ODI.
