These ODI and T20s will serve India better in the pursuit of ascertaininh the squad for the T20 World Cup 2022. Australia and South Africa too will be treating the away series in India as a preparatory tour of the mega event. Australia are the defending champions in the T20 World Cup and would be eyeing to defend the title in their backyard. South Africa, on the other hand, have never won any ICC tournament but they are one team who are in very good form at the moment.
Hopefully, India will do away with their experimentation in this series vs Australia and Proteas. These days with KL Rahul missing, India have been trying different options. In away T20 series vs England, India tried Rishabh Pant at the top and in the ongoing series vs West Indies, Suryakumar Yadav has been doing well. Many experts feel that with T20 World Cup nearing, India needs to ensure they have a squad ready for the mega event.
