Top Indian stars like Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja, Shreyas Iyer, etc missed the T20I series against West Indies due to injuries or workload management as Hardik Pandya's men slumped to a 2-3 defeat. Though there's no T20 World Cup this year, the result has raised many questions about the team's preparedness in the shortest format and roadmap going forward. Former India opening batter Wasim Jaffer isn't happy with the 'template' shown by the team in the series and wants it to be changed.
England pacer Stuart Broad shocked the cricketing world after he announced his retirement from professional cricket following the conclusion of the 2023 Ashes. Broad, who finished his Test career with 604 wickets from 167 matches at an average of 27.68, opened up on his decision to retire during a recent interaction with former South Africa AB de Villiers on the latter's YouTube channel. Broad shed light on one of his "biggest fears", which played a part in his decision to call it a day.
The five-match T20I series between India and West Indies ended in the favour of the hosts, with a 3-2 score-line. Opting to bat on Sunday, the Hardik Pandya-led side visibly struggled and reached a total of 165/9 in 20 overs after Suryakumar Yadav scored 61 runs. Later, West Indies comfortably chased down the target in just 18 overs with eight wickets in hand. Among all the Indian players, this series turned out to be a nightmare for wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson, who once again failed to leave an impact.
After impressing with his performance in Test cricket and now in T20Is against the West Indies, talented Indian youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal has now become the cynosure of all eyes. He was the fifth highest run-scorer in IPL 2023 batting with a strike rate of 163.61. Fresh from his exploits in the T20 event, Jaiswal made a smooth transition to Test cricket with a century on India debut and then followed it up with a half-century. Jaiswal then grabbed his opportunity in T20I cricket with an unbeaten 84 off 51 balls, his first fifty in second appearance in the shortest format.

Up against West Indies in tour that consisted of 2 Tests, 3 ODIs and 5 T20Is, the expectations from the subcontinent giants was that they would produce clean sweeps across formats. But, the reality was something else. The Test series resulted in a 1-0 win for India, with one drawn Test while the ODI assignment saw the team produce a 2-1 win. But, it was in the shortest format that the team was up for a shock. With Nicholas Pooran in prime form, West Indies stunned India 3-2, securing an unlikely series win that put the Indian team in the line of fire.
