For your information, three-match T20 International series to be held from September 15, the Indian team was first to be selected on Thursday 5 September, but after short notice from BCCI, the team was selected seven days in advance. The 15-member squad selected on Thursday 29 August is in the hands of Virat Kohli, who will play three T20 matches at Dharamshala on 15 September, Mohali on 18 September and Bengaluru on 21 September.

The selection committee, led by MSK Prasad, has selected this team keeping in mind the T20 World Cup to be held in Australia next year. The team was selected through conferencing by captain Virat Kohli and the committee of selectors sitting in New Delhi, Thiruvananthapuram, Bangalore and Jamaica. Meanwhile, the question has also arisen as to why the team was elected seven days ago, the answer is that the Indian team's sponsor has changed. Because of this, Nike, the maker of Indian team clothes, will take time to prepare new jerseys.
