India has announced the squad for the T20 series against South Africa. Legendary batsman wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik has returned to the T20 squad. Karthik has performed brilliantly in IPL 2022. At the same time, Shikhar Dhawan, the best batsman in the team, has no chance. While he has done amazing this season. The important thing is that he was also made captain during India’s tour of Sri Lanka. But against South Africa, they didn’t give him a place in the team.
Dhawan has performed amazingly for Punjab Kings in IPL 2022. He has scored 445 runs in 14 league games this season. During this his best score was 88 not out. Dhawan also scored 3 half centuries at IPL 2022. The veteran batsman for the Indian team failed to make it to the Indian team despite his strong performance. Along with this, it is also worth noting that he was the captain of the India team in the Sri Lanka tour. But now they have been discarded. The team captain has been handed over to KL Rahul. While Rishabh Pant has been appointed vice-captain.
Significantly, the T20 series between India and South Africa will be played from June 9. The first match of the series will be held in Delhi. For this series, India has included many young players in the squad. The names of fast bowlers Umran Malik, Ravi Bishnoi, Harshal Patel and Avesh Khan are included in this. Along with these players, other players also have a chance. Karthik’s return was expected and the selection committee, seeing his performance, gave him a chance in the team.
