by

IND VS WI: The fifth match of the 5-match T-20 series being played with West Indies will be played today. This match will be held at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, in which both the teams would like to take the field with their best playing-11. There is going to be a force change in Team India, because fast bowler Arshdeep Singh has been ruled out of the fifth match due to the injury suffered in the previous match. So let us know what changes can happen in India's playing-11 in the fifth and series deciding match?

Bhuvneshwar Kumar in place of Arshdeep Singh

The Indian cricket team will have to make changes in the playing 11 of the fifth T20 match to be played with the West Indies. Because fast bowler Arshdeep Singh is out of the team after getting injured. Experienced fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who has been included as a replacement for Arshdeep, can enter the playing-11.

Actually, at present only 2 bowlers are present in the T20 squad of the Indian cricket team. The names of Prince Yadav and Mayank Yadav are included in this. Three fast bowlers were selected for the T20 series against West Indies, out of which one Arshdeep Singh has been dropped. Now the third bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar has come in his place.

At least Team India would like to enter the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru with three fast bowlers and 2 spin bowlers. In such a situation, there will be only one bowler left who can play for Team India and that is Bhuvneshwar Kumar. If captain Iyer and coach Gambhir give him a chance in the playing-11, then after 3 years 11 months i.e. 1426 days, he will return to the cricket field for Team India.

Kuldeep Yadav will also return to playing-11

He was included in the playing-11 for the first two matches of the T-20 series being played with West Indies, but then he was made to sit on the bench. But now Kuldeep may return to the playing-11 in the fifth and deciding match. Yes, team management can make changes in the bowling combination. By giving a chance to Kuldeep Yadav, India can try to sharpen its spin bowling. His wicket-taking ability can become a challenge for the middle order of West Indies. If India gets the bowling first, there is a possibility of him being played in place of Mayank or Prince Yadav.

Shivam Dubey may get a chance in place of Naman Dhir

Apart from this, there is a possibility of another change. Shivam Dubey may also get a chance in place of Naman Dheer. However, the final decision will be based on the pitch and team combination. Naman has played all 4 matches of this series and has taken 5 wickets. At the same time, Shivam Dubey was included in the playing-11 for the first two T-20 matches, but then he was made to sit on the bench.

India's playing-11 for the fifth T20I: Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer (captain), Tilak Verma, Naman Dheer, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Axar Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Yadav/Kuldeep Yadav, Prince Yadav.
