#3 Yuzvendra Chahal
After reaching his career-best ranking in the ICC ODI bowlers rankings in November, Chahal was dropped from the side for the first two T20s against the Windies for strategic reasons.
He was replaced by Krunal Pandya who reinstated the Team Management's faith with an impressive debut performance of 1/15 from his four overs. Pandya also scored a quickfire 21 off 9 balls to take the team through showcasing his all-around talent.
Chahal was included in the side for the 3rd T20 where he picked up figures of 2 for 28 in 4 overs. He didn't feature in the T20 series against the Aussies as the Indians opted for Pandya in his place.
Chahal has been one of India's top performers in the recent past. He has stepped up for the side whenever needed and thus will be looking to strengthen his place in the side for the upcoming World Cup.
