Eyes on Arshdeep and Umran’s debut-
In the opening contest of the five-match T20I series, only Avesh Khan ended in single figures in terms economy. With everyone getting hammered, calls for the debut of Arshdeep and Umran Malik have intensified, as they both knock on the doors.
Eyes will certainly be forecasted on the net practice as they will be monitored closely. The Indian team will have a stern challenge if they are to bounce back in the contest and proper routine in the nets will be a perfect dose.
Both Arshdeep and Umran had a fruitful Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign and will try to make sure they are the latest inductee to the international stage.

India to avoid heavy Net practice?-
- The players are expected to give their 100 percent in the match, but in recent times players have suffered blows in the net sessions.
- Kuldeep Yadav suffered a blow in the nets last time around, while Rohit Sharma was ruled out of the South Africa tour at the start of the year after getting injured in nets.
- So to avoid any potential injury layoffs, coach Rahul Dravid will advice players to take light routines in the nets.
