Dhruv Jurel or Rishabh Pant - Rishabh Pant has been given enough and more chances in T20Is but the X-factor he possesses might help him to retain his spot at least in the near future but Dhruv Jurel is definitely putting his name in contention for the second wicketkeeper's spot

The final spot for an extra batter could see a three-way battle between Shubman Gill (an extra opener), Tilak Varma (a middle-order player) and Shivam Dube (a pace-bowling all-rounder)

Another battle for a spot is likely to be for the third pacer! Mukesh Kumar, Avesh Khan, Harshit Rana are the options from the newer players, there is Khaleel Ahmed as well as Mohammed Siraj too, who was in the T20 World Cup squad
