5 questions that India need to answer before the 2020 T20 World Cup

#2 Will the middle order conundrum end?

Shreyas Iyer will look to further consolidate his place in the middle order

Shreyas Iyer's return to the Indian colours due to consistent returns for India A seems to be a clever move by the Indian selectors. With players such as Shubman Gill waiting in the wings for an opportunity, India has enough time to finalize the middle order.

If the recently concluded T20I series is anything to go by, India are looking to mould Hardik Pandya into a proper middle-order batsman, pretty much like how Ben Stokes plays for England.

Assuming Hardik will play at No. 6 and Iyer continues his fine form at No. 4, it leaves just one spot up for grabs, likely to be taken by Rishabh Pant (assuming MS Dhoni hangs up his boots).

If Pant's poor form continues, it would be safe to at least imagine KL Rahul being selected as the wicket-keeper. He would then play as a middle-order batsman.
