3 Changes in Team India Playing XI for 2nd T20I: The five-match T20 series between India and Zimbabwe (IND vs ZIM) has started.

A big upset was seen in the first match of the series itself and India had to face defeat by 13 runs at the hands of Zimbabwe. In the match, Shubman Gill won the toss and decided to bowl first. The host team scored 115/9 while batting first. In response, Team India was all out for 103 runs in 19.5 overs.

After this shameful performance, there can be some changes in India's playing XI in the second T20 match. In this article, we will mention those 3 players who can be dropped from India's playing XI in the second T20.

3. Avesh Khan

Avesh Khan is one of the key players of the Indian team selected for this tour, but his performance in the first match looked very dull.

Avesh took 1 wicket for 29 runs in his spell of 4 overs. In such a situation, he can be dropped from the playing XI in the second match. In his place, Harshit Rana, who performed brilliantly in IPL 2024 for Kolkata Knight Riders, can get a chance, who was also in the news for his speed.

2. Dhruv Jurel

In the absence of wicketkeeper-batsmen like Sanju Samson, Dhruv Jurel had a good chance to cement his place in the team by performing well in the first match of the series, but he could score only 6 runs in 14 balls.

In the second match of the series, Jitesh Sharma, who is known for his explosive batting, can now make a place in the playing XI.

1. Abhishek Sharma

Abhishek Sharma, who batted explosively for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2024, flopped badly in his first international match. Abhishek was caught out while trying to play a big shot and was out on a duck. Sai Sudarshan may get a chance in his place in the second T20 match.
