India will transition to the T20I series following their Test series against Bangladesh.

With two pillars of Indian cricket, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, having retired from the format, India is building a younger, more dynamic T20 side. As the first home T20I series after the retirements of these veterans, three new Indian players are poised to make their debuts. Let’s delve into who these potential debutants might be and their prospects for India’s future T20I squad.
