Woakes further said- You don’t always expect that the number 11 batsman will play some balls in the stands. It was a good game for them, that they played good cricket. We bowled according to our plan for a long time and in the end we got the result.

Three ODIs and three T20 series will be played between the two teams on this tour. The selectors took a lot of time to announce this series.

The Indian Express report claims that this selection meeting was different from all other meetings as it was full of heated debates and disagreements. Phone calls were made to the players and the long term planning of the team management was explained to them. Players showed more trust in Suryakumar Yadav than Hardik Pandya According to the Indian Express report, there was also a view in the team selection meeting that not making the current vice-captain of the T20 team, i.e. Hardik Pandya, the captain would be unfair to him. Especially when he has performed amazingly during the World Cup. An Indian Express report claims that due to the trust of the players, the scales tilted in favor of Suryakumar Yadav. The report states that the ‘feedback’ received by the BCCI was that the players ‘trusted Yadav more than Pandya’ and were comfortable working under him.
