Now it is difficult to make a place for this player in the T20 team

All-rounder Hardik Pandya will captain Team India in the T20 series against New Zealand, while many young players have been given a chance in this series. But veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has been dropped from this series. R Ashwin played in T20 World Cup 2022. But along with being out of this tournament, Ashwin is also out of the team. Nothing can be said about when he will appear in T20 cricket.

Returned to T20 after a long time

Team India toured the West Indies in the month of July. R Ashwin (Ravichandran Ashwin) made a comeback in the T20 team on this tour. R Ashwin also played in Asia Cup 2022. But he could not leave his mark in T20 World Cup 2022. He spent runs with an economy of 8.15 in 6 matches played in this tournament and could get only 6 wickets.
