Shreyas Iyer

A constant performer in IPL and domestic cricket, Shreyas Iyer was part of the Indian team when it triumphed in South Africa at the start of the year 2018. He scored 463 runs in the 2019 IPL for his side Delhi Capitals whom he also leads. This charismatic middle-order batsman has all the shots in the book and a calm head to go with it. He needs to grab this golden opportunity with both hands and become a constant for India in the middle order.

Deepak Chahar

Being one of the focal points of Chennai Super Kings’ bowling attack, Deepak Chahar’s consistency with the new bowl has won him many admirers. He will be part of the T20 squad that faces West Indies in Florida and Guyana. The Caribbean batsmen are known to attack from the onset and this is where Deepak Chahar can showcase his true prowess. Ahead of India's Tour of West Indies 2019, Here's a Recap of How Team India and Windies Fared in Their Last Bilateral Series. 

Rahul Chahar

Deepak Chahar’s cousin was one of the finds of the IPL 2019 where he helped his team Mumbai Indians win the championship. One of the strong areas of this young spinner is his incredibly low economy rate. The West Indies pitches do not have much to offer for the slow bowlers and it will be interesting to see how Chahar fairs.

Navdeep Saini

Navdeep Saini’s brilliance with the bowl in the 2019 IPL may have been overshadowed by Royal Challengers Bangalore’s poor performance but it did make the selectors take note. He was part of the 2019 World Cup as a net bowler and under the leadership of Virat Kohli, he is bound to get his opportunity. Known for his terrific pace in domestic cricket, Saini will claim wickets provided he keep a good control on his line and length.

Washington Sundar

He maybe 19 but Washington Sundar has already had a few glorious moments in the blue jersey of India. Adjudged the player of the tournament in Nidahas Trophy in 2018, Washington Sundar has a lot of career ahead of himself and just needs a run-in with the senior team. He will be part of a quartet of spinners in the T20 squad for the West Indies tour and hence the competition for places in the playing eleven is quite high. India vs West Indies Head-to-Head Record in T20Is, Ahead of T20 Series, Here Are Match Results of Last 5 IND vs WI Twenty20 Encounters!.

Khaleel Ahmed

The young left-arm pacer brings in a new dimension in the bowling line-up and has done well with the limited opportunity he has got with team India in the shorter format of the game. 19 wickets in the IPL and consistent showing for Rajasthan in domestic cricket with 47 wickets in 30 games has got him another chance to shine.

These young players represent the future of Indian cricket and it is imperative they make good use of these opportunities to feature regularly in the Indian cricket team.
