Cuttack will be hosting the Proteas as India march on to take the revenge for the first T20I loss which was not just a loss if stated by an Indian fan as the Delhi crowd awaited to witness the record-breaking win which could have made Rishabh’s maiden win as a skipper and also could have topped team India in the charts of “Most Consecutive Wins in T20Is” which gets away from the hands of the blues.
While the bowlers were to be blamed for the Delhi loss, it will be unlikely for team India to change anything for the batting unit. Bowlers on the other hand might get swapped for one another as coach Dravid’s statement of “The benched players are not here for holiday” can be much of a proving point tonight.
India might witness the top pacer and young gunner Umran Malik breaking some wickets if debuted by team India. Umran has got the maiden call and a very advantageous opportunity to represent the blues but will he be included in the playing XI?
Twitterati has kept their judgment to put Umran Malik in the playing XI and the team management shall also feel the same after looking at the performance of the pacers in Delhi. Umran is likely to debut tonight and it is predicted that Avesh Khan will be swapped for Umran’s arrival tonight.
Umran played unbelievably well for his IPL franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad and also got a unique record to his name. Umran won all the 14 awards for the fastest ball bowled in the match. Having played 14 games, SRH won all the 14 awards, each award being worth ₹1,00,000.
