IND vs WA XI LIVE: From death bowling to Ashwin vs Chahal, Rohit Sharma aiming to solve team crisis during warm-up matches

Team India will play a practice game against Western Australia XI on Monday. They will then play warm-up games against Australia and New Zealand next week. Rohit Sharma will assess his side before the T20 World Cup later this month.

Rohit Sharma is trying to solve team crisis during warm up matches.

Jasprit Bumrah is out of the T20 World Cup with a back injury. Mohammed Shami is yet to travel with fitness test scheduled at the NCA. Deepak Chahar has reported an injury and Mohammed Siraj is currently on tour against South Africa. Arshdeep Singh is India's best bet.

Ravichandran Ashwin was preferred to Yuzvendra Chahal in the series against South Africa. Rohit Sharma will hope that the warm-up games will make the choice easier between the two spinners.

Rishabh Pant returns to Australia for the first time since his heroics at Sydney and Gabba. He has since lost his place to Dinesh Karthik in the team. However, with conditions suiting his style of play and him being a left-hander, there is always a case to include him in playing XI.

India's fielding has been sloppy in the recent matches against Australia and South Africa. The players have been subjected to special fielding drills in practice.

Jasprit Bumrah's injury and the poor form of Harshal Patel and Bhuvneshwar Kumar has India sweating over their final overs during bowling. In the home leg, the bowlers were smashed to all parts of the ground.
