India will have a month-long tour of West Indies where they would start with two Test matches starting July 12, followed by three ODIs and five T20Is in which a completely new team led by Hardik Pandya will be plying its trade with IPL performers likely to be rewarded. While another WTC final defeat will hurt the team, there is a strong feeling that the Shiv Sunder Das-led selection committee and head coach Rahul Dravid will be looking at new options going into the next WTC cycle, which starts with the series in the Caribbean.
It must be remembered that West Indies is presently in Zimbabwe playing the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 qualifiers, which is set to conclude only on July 9, about three days before their first Test against India on July 12. A change in the schedule would seem like an immediate solution, and Cricket West Indies (CWI) is believed to be exploring several options to avoid potential damage, keeping players` fitness under check.
