WI vs IND 2023: India's predicted playing XI for Test series
India will play a couple of Tests against the West Indies in the Caribbean islands between July 12 to July 25.
7. Ravindra Jadeja
The Indian team will expect one of the most bankable stalwarts, Ravindra Jadeja, to put up an all-round dominating show against the West Indies and help the team to clinch the series. In February, the all-rounder made a perfect comeback in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2022-23.
Picking up 22 wickets in eight innings of four Tests, Jadeja became the joint-second-leading wicket-taker in the tournament, along with Nathan Lyon. However, in the WTC final game, Jadeja couldn’t perform up to the expectations, like other veterans such as captain Rohit Sharma, Cheteshwar Pujara, and Virat Kohli.
Playing the two-match Test series in the Caribbean conditions, the 34-year-old will look to have a great time in both batting and bowling departments. Talking about Jadeja’s bowling record in the West Indies, the veteran has claimed nine wickets in six innings of three Tests, with the best figures of 4/77.
