Batsman Virat Kohli and seamer Jasprit Bumrah have been left out of India’s Twenty20 squad for the team’s five-match tour of West Indies beginning later this month.
Former captain Kohli has endured a lean run of form across formats and is without a century in international cricket since November 2019.
The Indian cricket board (BCCI), which rarely explains team selection, did not specify if Kohli had been dropped or rested.
Bumrah, currently the top-ranked ODI bowler, has likely been rested considering the workload of India’s all-format pace spearhead.
