Immediately after UAE secured qualification for the T20 World Cup earlier this year, coach Robin Singh said he would be scouting out players that would be suited to the challenge of playing in Australia.
Jos Buttler is back in his all-action role as captain, opening batsman and wicketkeeper as power-packed England prepare to launch their bid for Twenty20 World Cup glory. The white ball star missed his side's recent 4-3 series win in Pakistan with a calf injury and in his absence Alex Hales and Phil Salt impressed at the top of the batting order, with Salt taking the gloves. But Buttler appeared to end speculation over whether he might relinquish his wicket-keeping role or drop down the batting order in the first game of a three-match series against Australia on Sunday.
When Nicholas Pooran was named captain of the West Indies white-ball sides in May he spoke of his desire to "drive the team forward to accomplish great things". His first real opportunity comes next week at the T20 World Cup in Australia when the two-time champions look to atone for a disappointing 2021 edition. The chances of a third Caribbean triumph will rest largely on the shoulders of Pooran, who turned 27 earlier this month and took over as skipper from Kieron Pollard.
India are under pressure to win their first global title since 2013 at the T20 World Cup in Australia but they must do so without injured pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah. Rohit Sharma's team open their campaign against arch-rivals Pakistan on October 23 in Melbourne in a hotly anticipated clash which could set the tone for their tournament. Top-ranked India recently won T20 series at home against Australia and South Africa and have been the team to beat in one-on-one competitions.
India's build-up to the 2022 T20 World Cup has been marred by injuries to a couple of top players. If Ravindra Jadeja's knee injury robbed India of a solid allrounder, Jasprit Bumrah's back injury meant that India would be without its pace spearhead in the marquee event. After making a comeback in the T20I series against Australia, following a lengthy rehabilitation, Bumrah again missed the T20I series against South Africa. He was then ruled out of the T20 World Cup.
