Team India got two new openers

Team India

In the upcoming T20 series, a new opening pair can be seen on the field from Team India. Actually we are talking about Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson. This will be the first time when both of them will be seen opening the innings for India.

Let us tell you that both Abhishek and Sanju have opened for the Indian team. Although both of them have never started the innings together. In such a situation, it is going to be very interesting to see, when these two explosive batsmen come out to open, what kind of start they are able to give to India.

5 all-rounders got a chance

In the Indian team, only the key players are seen playing mostly. That is, all-rounder players who are capable of making significant contributions with both ball and bat, such players get very few opportunities. However, after Gautam Gambhir became the head coach, there has been a lot of change in this mentality.

This is the reason why there are 5 all-round players in the Indian team selected for the T20 series against Bangladesh. Apart from Hardik Pandya, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Shivam Dubey, Washington Sundar, Ryan Parag is present, who knows how to leave his impact with both bat and ball.

India's squad for the first T20 against Bangladesh:

Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Rinku Singh, Hardik Pandya, Ryan Parag, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Shivam Dubey, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakraborty, Jitesh Sharma (wicketkeeper), Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana, Mayank Yadav.
