Their presence adds immense value to a batting line-up that struggled for consistency in the shorter format. Alongside them, the return of KL Rahul, who missed the T20I leg due to injury, will further consolidate the middle order with his calm and composed approach.
Skipper Shubman Gill, who has been in fine form, will look to lead from the front and build a strong foundation for the World Cup year ahead. The Men in Blue will be keen to put the T20I disappointments behind them and start the ODI series on a positive note.
