Covid-hit KL Rahul may miss T20I series in West Indies

West Indies, starting on July 29 at Tarouba, TOI has learnt. However, the BCCI will not announce a replacement for the senior India batsman.

"Rahul needs rest for another fortnight to recover completely from Covid. However, it is unlikely that a replacement for him will be sent to the West Indies.

Either Rishabh Pant or Ishan Kishan can open with Rohit. There's no point in sending someone now," a source in the BCCI said.
