Keeping this in mind, here is the Team COC Predicted Team India playing XI for the 2nd T20I against West Indies.
Given that this match is only the second of the series, not many changes are expected to the playing XI of the Indian team. Suryakumar Yadav might get one more chance to open the innings, or the management might want to revert to Pant opening or get Ishan Kishan in.
India made the best use of the track in Tarouba by playing three spinners with R Ashwin and Ravi Bishnoi making life difficult for West Indies batters.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar showed why he is regarded as one of the best in the business with the white ball, while Arshdeep Singh is doing no harm to his reputation of being good with the new ball and being lethal in death overs.
India will look to win this match and continue their dominance over the Men in Maroon.
COC Predicted Team India Playing XI for the second T20I:
Rohit Sharma (C), Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (WK), Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Ravi Bishnoi, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh
