According to Cricbuzz, Rishabh Pant, who went off the radar of Indian cricket due to a dreadful accident more than 16 months ago, is in line for a recall into the Indian team. His recent performances in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) seem to have given him definite edge over his other contenders for the position and the Indian team and the think-tank is believed to be convinced that he is ready for international action. Unless he comes up with abysmally poor scores, he could be on the flight to the US and West Indies. Azhar Mahmood Likely to Be Named Pakistan Cricket Team's Assistant Coach Across All Formats.

Meanwhile, it is almost certain that Virat Kohli will be in the squad. With more than 300 runs (316) in five matches, including a century, he is the highest scorer of the league so far and there is no way he is going to be left out, despite some conversation to the contrary about his strike rate. Dilemma still remains on the selection of the likes of Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel. Mohammed Siraj and Arshdeep Singh are likely to make it to the squad because of their recent experience with Team India. Mayank Yadav, who has impressed with his high pace is also being monitored by the selectors.
