India tour of Ireland (2 T20Is) & England (1 Test, 3 ODIs & 3 T20Is)

Tector's secured himself an IPL contract here.
 
Someone please tell me that Gaikwad got injured and Hooda was forced to open!
 
He's a much improved player lately. The IPL would eat him alive though
Had more to do with the fact that IPL franchises seem to bid heavily on players that have played really well against India in recent series (ex. Kyle Jamieson in the IPL 2021 auction following a dominant home series against India)
 
Why is Prithvi Shaw not part of the T20 team?
 
Why is Prithvi Shaw not part of the T20 team?
  1. He failed to outperform other openers
  2. Ruturaj got an Orange Cap and had a decent season this year (scored more than Shaw in both seasons)
  3. Ishan Kishan can keep wickets + he is a left hander + he can play in the middle order
  4. KL Rahul & Rohit Sharma have taken up their spots already
  5. India took a while to move on from Shikhar Dhawan
  6. Shaw have struggled to play on wickets with pace, bounce and lateral movement
Ideally we are not lacking options to play batters at the top, so having Shaw isn't a necessity.
