Washington Sundar, Thampi, Hooda in India's T20 squad

Virat Kohli, who had been rested from the ODI series against Sri Lanka, has been rested for the T20 leg too. This means Rohit Sharma will lead the limited-overs sides in Kohli's absence. The T20 squad includes three new faces: 18-year-old Tamil Nadu allrounder Washington Sundar, Baroda batsman Deepak Hooda and Kerala quick Basil Thampi. The trio, along with Saurashtra seamer Jaydev Unadkat, who last played international cricket in June 2016, have been rewarded for their impressive performances in domestic cricket and IPL.

Shikhar Dhawan and Bhuvneshwar Kumar have also been rested from the T20 squad. Instead, KL Rahul, who hasn't played limited-overs internationals since September, could open with Rohit. Jasprit Bumrah, who has earned his maiden call-up to the Test squad, will lead a new-look seam attack, which also includes Hyderabad fast bowler Mohammed Siraj, who leaked 53 runs on T20I debut against New Zealand last month.

"Virat, Bhuvi, and Shikhar have all been rested keeping the South Africa tour in consideration," MSK Prasad, the chairman of selectors, said. "With regard to the youngsters, someone like Basil Thampi, Siraj, Hooda, Shreyas Iyer - all these players have been doing really well in domestic cricket. After doing well in domestic cricket we have given them opportunities in India A tours to South Africa and against New Zealand here [at home]. Considering all those performances and taking performances of the top-class IPL we have considered these names."
