2. Relying on Manish Pandey and Shreyas Iyer in the middle order

The talented Manish Pandey and Shreyas Iyer have been selected in the Indian T20 squad for the Caribbean assignment. Oscillating in an out of the squad for a long time now, the duo is expected to be cushioned with a sustained run in the brisk-paced format.
Both Pandey and Iyer have been knocking on the doors of selection with consistent performances in the domestic arena and India A tournaments. As ODI regulars Dinesh Karthik and Kedar Jadhav do not find a place in India’s T20 mix anymore, the onus is on the youngsters to deliver to their potential.
Notching up a breezy 71 in the second ODI against the Calypso men, Iyer has already embarked on the path to terminate the number four conundrum. Boasting of an all-round well-developed game, the duo is extremely crucial to Indian preparations for the illustrious mega event in Australia next year.
