Team India has to host West Indies at home in October in the next WTC cycle. India’s team can play this 2-match Test series. This Test series will be played in the WTC 2025-27 cycle. If we talk about India’s captaincy in this Test, then Rishabh Pant can get a chance here. The responsibility of India can be on his shoulders.
It is known that Pant is one of those players who has performed brilliantly for India in Tests so far. In such a situation, he can get the responsibility of leadership against the Caribbean team. Apart from this, Jaspreet Bumrah can be the only contender as captain who is currently the vice-captain. But there is every possibility that he may not get this responsibility due to fitness.
The luck of these players can also shine
Talking about other players, Sai Sudarshan, Devdutt Padikkal, Rituraj Gaikwad, Abhimanyu Easwaran, and Tanush Kotian can get a chance. Let us tell you that the performance of these players in domestic first-class cricket is very good. In such a situation, they can get the reward of good performance in domestic cricket by entering Team India. Apart from these, some experienced players can also make a place. Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sarfaraz Khan, Mohammad Siraj, and Washington Sundar can get a chance
They will get a chance in bowling
Talking about bowling, Akash Deep and Prasidh Krishna can make a place along with Mohammad Siraj. Harshit Rana and Nitish Kumar Reddy can also get a chance along with them. Let us tell you that Nitish has recently shown excellent performance in Test cricket. In such a situation, his place in the Indian team (Team India) is fixed for a long time.
