Kolkata: The Indian cricket team is constantly undergoing many changes. After Virat Kohli relinquished the captaincy in all three formats, Rohit Sharma has been made the captain of ODI and T20, while KL Rahul has become the vice-captain of the Indian team. But due to fitness, many changes are being made in it too. India’s upcoming T20 series is to be played against West Indies (IND vs WI T20 Series), in which Rohit Sharma will be seen in the role of captain and Rishabh Pant as vice-captain.
The Indian Cricket Board has taken this decision after KL Rahul was ruled out of the series, which clearly shows that BCCI is planning to invest in Pant. Let us inform that KL Rahul has been ruled out of the T20 series due to a muscle strain while fielding in the second ODI against West Indies. Rituraj Gaikwad has been included in the team as his replacement.

At the same time, Washington Sundar also suffered a strain in his left muscle during fielding in the third ODI. Because of this, he has also been ruled out of the T20 series. Kuldeep Yadav has been selected in his place. However, the role of Rishabh Pant in the T20 series against West Indies will be worth watching. It is to be known that apart from KL Rahul and Washington Sundar, Axar Patel will also not be a part of this series. Because, he is in the final stage of his rehabilitation after recovering from the corona virus.
