Wasim Jaffer Names Indian Playing 11 Before IND vs NZ 1st T20I; Leaves Out Prithvi Shaw
After whitewashing the Kiwis 3-0 in the ODI series, team India is set to host New Zealand for a 3-match ODI series. The T20I series between the two teams is set to start on January 27th (Friday) in Ranchi, Jharkhand. The team combination and the Indian playing 11 is under suspense and it would be interesting to see which 11 players Hardik Pandya fields in the 1st T20I. However, former Indian Test opening batter, Wasim Jaffer, has revealed his playing 11 ahead of the first T20I.
Jaffer has placed Shubman Gill and Ishan Kishan in the opening slots, leaving out Prithvi Shaw, who made his comeback to the T20I side after 2 years. Jaffer has trusted Rahul Tripathi and placed him at #3 in the absence of Virat Kohli. #1 T20I batter Suryakumar Yadav has been slotted in the #4 position followed by captain Hardik Pandya. Up next, all-rounders Deepak Hooda and Washington Sundar have been placed at the #6 and #7 slots by Wasim Jaffer.
