IND vs AFG / There will be a fight between two players for this one place against Afghanistan, the captain will take the decision!

IND vs AFG: BCCI has announced Team India for the T20 series to be played against Afghanistan. In this series which is going to start from January 11, the command of Team India will be in the hands of Rohit Sharma. Rohit will have to take a big decision in the very first match of the series. Even if Rohit does not want to, he will have to drop a star player from the playing 11.

Battle between two players for a place

The T20 series played against Afghanistan is India's last T20 series before the T20 World Cup. For this series, the selectors have selected Sanju Samson and Jitesh Sharma in the team as wicketkeepers. In such a situation, Rohit will have to take a big decision and include one of these players in the playing 11. There is very little hope of both the players getting a chance in the team together.

Will Sanju's experience weigh heavily on Jitesh?

Sanju Samson has played 24 T20 matches for Team India so far. During this period, Sanju Samson has scored 374 runs in 21 innings at a strike rate of 133.57 and an average of 19.68. Sanju Samson has played 1 half-century innings during this period. Whereas, Jitesh Sharma has played only 7 T20 matches for Team India so far. During this period, Jitesh Sharma has scored 69 runs at a strike rate of 150.00. He was also a part of Team India in the recent T20 series played against South Africa. On the other hand, Sanju played a century in the ODI series against South Africa. In such a situation, both these players are big contenders to be included in the playing 11.
