West Indies vs India:- SWOT analysis of the Indian squad for T20I series

#2 Weaknesses:-

Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

The death bowling might be one cause for concern for Kohli's army against the West Indies. The ever-reliant Jasprit Bumrah has been rested for white-ball cricket in this tour, which means India will have to go for Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Navdeep Saini in the death overs. Bhuvneshwar has struggled in the slog overs of late while Saini is yet to play an international game. The 26-year-old speedster was the find for Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2019 but he is still a greenhorn when it comes to international cricket.

Besides bowling in the death overs, India may also lack finishing touch in the slog overs because of Hardik's absence. They will rely on Rishabh Pant and Krunal Pandya for the finisher's job as even Mahendra Singh Dhoni is taking a break in this series.

India could also have selected another attacking batsman for the middle-order. An attacking batsman like Nitish Rana or Ishan Kishan would have made the middle-order more suitable to the shortest format of the game.
