Will Vaibhav Play Against West Indies?
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was not included in India’s playing XI during the recent T20I series against Afghanistan, with Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson opening the innings.
He did, however, feature for India at the Asian Games, where he opened alongside Abhishek. Sanju batted at No. 3, resulting in a reshuffled batting order. Vaibhav had a modest outing at the tournament, scoring 53 runs across his two appearances.
India’s five-match T20I series against West Indies begins on October 6. The big question is whether Vaibhav will be given an opportunity in the opening game.
