India Squad For AUS & SA
As team India are all set to begin two of the most crucial series before the T20 World Cup 2022 in October. The BCCI has announced the squads for both the series with Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul set to remain captain and vice-captain, respectively of the side.
The team is almost the same like we saw in Asia Cup with few changes as Mohammad Shami, who got dropped from the side in the marquee event, now back in the team, while the injuries left players Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel also back in the team which further strengthen team India’s bowling.
Both Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik will retained their spot as the wicket-keeper batters in the side. While the veteran Ravichandran Ashwin also retained his position.
During Australia’s tour of India in 2022, a three-match T20I series will be played between both teams.
The three Twenty20 International matches are scheduled for September 20, 23, and 25. The games against Australia will take place at Mohali on September 20, Nagpur on September 23, and Hyderabad on September 25.
Right after the Australia series the men in blue will lock horns with South Africa for a three-match T20 series as part of their preparation for the ICC T20 World Cup 2022.
The T20 series will take place between September 28 and October 3.
