Possible Playing XI of Team India:Kuldeep may get a chance in the first ODI against West Indies, Deepak Hooda can debut

 The first match of the ODI series between India and West Indies is to be played on 6 February. This match will be played in Ahmedabad. Even before the start of the series, Team India has suffered a big setback. Some players including Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer and Rituraj Gaikwad have been found to be Corona positive. In such a situation, the problem has increased a bit for Team India, which has recently lost the series against South Africa.

However, Rohit Sharma is making a comeback in the team. Let's take a look at the probable playing XI of the Indian team for the first match...

Mayank with Rohit on the opening pair and Kohli at No. 3
can also be seen as openers captain Rohit Sharma and Mayank Agarwal in the first match. Shikhar Dhawan, who was in excellent form in the ODI series against South Africa, will not be able to play the first ODI due to Corona. In his place, Mayank Agarwal has been added to the team. Mayank can open the innings with Rohit.

Virat Kohli will be seen playing at number 3. Once again, Indian fans will be hoping that this player will score his 71st century. In the series against South Africa, Kohli had scored two half-centuries in 3 matches, but could not score a century. In such a situation, there will be a lot of expectations from this player in the Ahmedabad ODI.

Who will get the chance in the middle order,
even for number 4, the problem has increased for Team India. Shreyas Iyer will not be able to play the first ODI due to Corona. In such a situation, Suryakumar Yadav can play at number 4. At the same time, Deepak Hooda can get a chance at number 5. If this happens then Deepak will play his first ODI for India.

Rishabh Pant can be seen in the role of the finisher in the match. He can be seen playing at number 6. Pant is known for scoring quick runs in the end. Rohit will have high hopes from Pant.

Changes in the spin department needed In the
South Africa series, R Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal were seen on the field and this spin pair failed miserably. Ashwin had spent 68 runs in the second ODI. Chahal was also seen straying from the rhythm throughout the series. In such a situation, Kuldeep Yadav can get a chance in the match against West Indies.

Chinaman bowler Kuldeep Yadav was dropped from the ODI and T20 squads last year due to poor form, but has returned for the ODI series against the West Indies. Kuldeep was also not included in the squad for the T20 World Cup and the African tour. He played his last ODI match on the tour of Sri Lanka last year.

With Siraj getting a chance in the pace attack, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami have been rested for the almost-scheduled ODI series. In such a situation, it is almost certain that Mohammad Siraj will get a chance in the first match. Apart from Siraj, Deepak Chahar can also be a part of the team. At the same time, Shardul Thakur will be seen playing with both of them. The best part for India is that Shardul and Deepak are contributing with the bat as well.

Team India's Probable XI: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Mayank Agarwal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Rishabh Pant (Wk), Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Siraj
