India and Afghanistan are all set to lock horns in the second T20I of the three-game series at the Holkar Stadium in Indore on Sunday, January 14. India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to field first against the visitors.
In a recent move, India decided to bench Shubman Gill and Tilak Varma in the second game as the Men in Blue are eyeing to seal the series. India’s ace batter Virat Kohli and youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal who missed the opening game have been picked at their place. It should be underlined that Kohli will be making a comeback to the T20I setup after more than a year with the former India captain having played in the game’s shortest format on November 10, 2022.
