India Playing XI vs AFG: Samson, Avesh & Kuldeep return as India opt to bat first

Having already won the series, India have made three changes in their final T20I before the T20 World Cup 2024.

The India cricket team has won the toss and opted to bat first in the IND vs AFG 3rd T20I at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The Men in Blue have made three changes in the playing XI vs AFG for the third T20I.

Sanju Samson has finally made it to the playing XI, replacing Jitesh Sharma as the designated wicketkeeper. Axar Patel has also been replaced after his stellar performance to give Kuldeep Yadav some game time. Meanwhile, the third and last change, is Avesh Khan, who comes in for Arshdeep Singh.

After Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, and Jitesh Sharma gave their auditions for the T20 World Cup 2024 with their performances, the Indian management felt it was time to give the probables for the final 15 the chance to showcase their might.

Although, as of now, Kuldeep is the only one who has the chance to make his way to the West Indies, Avesh and Samson will want to leave their mark and remind the management of what they bring to the table.
