Indian T20 Team vs Bangladesh
Surya Kumar Yadav (captain), Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Rinku Singh, Hardik Pandya, Riyan Parag, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakraborty, Jitesh Sharma (wicketkeeper), Arshdeep Singh , Harshit Rana and Mayank Yadav.
In the T20 series of this year's tour of Sri Lanka, Sanju was off zero in the last two matches. Due to that, the fans expected that Sanju will not get a chance in the tours of India this year. Sanju's brilliant performance in the Duleep Trophy made his way into the team.
The fan furore was huge when the BCCI did not include Sanju in the squad for the Irani Cup. But Irani was not selected for the BCCI international team.
Sanju may be India's opener in the series. But Sanju does not have a good opening record. In the second T20 against Sri Lanka, Sanju played as an opener but got out on the very first ball he faced. In the third T20, Sanju played despite finishing third. Sanju got out without scoring this time as well.
Rohit Sharma's retirement from T20 cricket and rest for the Jaiswal-Giler combination will benefit Sanju. It is reported that the team management's move is to play Sanju along with Abhishek Sharma .
The India-Bangladesh T20 series will start on October 6. There will be three matches in the series. The first T20 will be played in Gwalior. The second match will be played in Delhi on the 9th and the third match will be played in Hyderabad on the 12th.
