Apart from Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, some players who were part of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 may also be dropped from the IND vs WI ODI series. In such a situation, the doors will open for young players in the team. Jasprit Bumrah, Shubman Gill, Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya are likely to get a chance against West Indies.
