Eyes on Shreyas' possible return to the T20I set up as the selection committee meets to name squad on Tuesday

- GOMESH S @ Chennai

AS the senior men's selection committee meets on Tuesday to name the squad for the upcoming T20 Asia Cup, one of the key talking points will be the middle-order batting and wicketkeeper options. That apart, there might not be too many surprises as the Indian T20I team has been hitting the right notes since the World Cup triumph last year.

From the time Gautam Gambhir took charge as the head coach, the Men in Blue have been a dynamic side in the shortest format. It is a team management that likes depth, prefers all-round options and left-right combinations. Despite the criticisms from the outside, they have stuck to it and the results have been in their favour.
