In recent times, we have seen quite a few debuts in T20 cricket. Teams have started using these T20I series to give opportunities to different players.

In this game, there were five debutants – a couple of them from India (Krunal Pandya and Khaleel Ahmed) and three from the Windies (Oshane Thomas, Fabian Allen and Kharry Pierre). All five of them had decent outings.

While Fabian Allen was the highest scorer for the Windies, Kharry Pierre bowled well and kept things tight as he finished with figures of 1/16 in his four overs. Oshane Thomas bowled a fiery opening spell and removed both the Indian openers.

Krunal Pandya contributed with both bat and ball (21 in 9 balls and 1/15) and Khaleel finished with figures of 1/16 in his four overs.

This game definitely provided the young talent with a chance to prove themselves on the higher stage. This was a great experience for all of them.
