National cricket team captain Virat Kohli has been rested for India's upcoming T20I series against Bangladesh. Rohit Sharma will lead the squad in his absence. Also, Sanju Samson and Yuzvendra Chahal have returned to the team roster, with Rishabh Pant also selected.
Also, Shivam Dube has received his maiden call-up to the India's T20 squad.
Pant has been under fire for quite sometime due to his poor shot selection, but the selectors have decided to give him another chance. Also, Samson's selection comes after his double ton for Kerala in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.
