Former Indian cricketer and 2011 World Cup winner Harbhajan Singh has revealed his preferred 15-man squad for the T20I series against the Windies, commencing in August later this year. The former Indian cricketer went with a youthful side, led by Hardik Pandya, with a few surprising inclusions.
While Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rinku Singh are two of the most obvious picks given their sublime effort with the bat in the recently concluded IPL 2023, Harbhajan also included Harshit Rana and Akash Madhwal in the 15-member squad. Both Rana and Madhwal shone for their respective franchises in the latter part of the tournament.
Harbhajan’s preferred T20I squad for the WI series: Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Rinku Singh, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (C), Axar Patel, Jitesh Sharma, Ravi Bishnoi, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana, Akash Madhwal
