Even t20 vs windies starts from 8 pm - 11.15 pm ist kind of late for me too.
I wonder if they will continue to stick KL Rahul and Dhawan both in the XI. To me, that is not the ideal thing to do. Play one of Dhawan or Rahul and have Krunal play as the allrounder and Iyer/Pandey fight out for one of the middle order spots.
Rohit
Dhawan/Rahul
Kohli
Iyer/Pandey
Pant
Krunal
Jadeja
Bhuvi
Sundar
Khaleel
Saini
Batting till No. 9 (Sundar is a good bat; maybe he can even bat above Bhuvi). If Rahul and Dhawan both play, they will either take up Krunal's spot (the 6th bowler) or Iyer/Pandey's spot. Both of which is not a good option as Krunal deserves to be groomed as a backup allrounder and Iyer/Pandey need a chance to fix our middle order woes.

That's ideal. But I don't think it will happen. I fully expect both to be in the playing XI.
Either the selectors don't know what to do with middle order or the team management is just rigid with the players that they want in the team. Neither Shreyas Iyer nor Manish pandey will give you runs batting at number 5 in a T20 match simply because that is not the position that they are comfortable with. They both are number 3 players and at most, you can have them at number 4. Anything lower than that is just not going to work in my opinion. Looking at the squad picked for this series, I don't see them batting in top 4 unless Dhawan is not playing. None of them can start hitting from ball 1 and require some time to settle in before they get going. If you ask me, I don't even think Manish Pandey deserves to be in T20 squad right now. Even though he did hit some form for Sunrisers at the end of their IPL campaign and finally looked like he was getting in the rhythm, he was very average before that. At some stages, it almost looked like he forgot how to bat.
Firs thing India need to do in T20 is just change the way they play. Saving wickets to hit later might work in ODI's but that definitely won't work in T20's. We have Rohit, Dhawan, Kohli who all take time before they get going and they are our top 3. I like the fact that now we have players in KL Rahul, Pant, Hardik who can get going form first ball because that is the approach India has to go for in T20's. In my opinion the max number of players you should have in your T20 line-up is 2 but right now we have 3 and we are likely to add one more in either Pandey/Iyer. Give license to either one of Dhawan or Rohit to go after the bowling from ball 1. Dhawan might be more suited to this role as I feel Rohit usually struggles when he goes after the bowlers straight away.

This is the line-up I feel the management will go with but If you are playing Pant any lower than 4 or 5 then you are wasting him. I think Dhawan did find some groove in T20 format in the last couple of years but it's just that we have three same type of players in our top 3 which doesn't make it easier for him. Now that they have picked Dhawan in the squad, I don't see how they are not going to play him in the final 11.
In my ideal T20 line-up, I would throw Pant to open the inning and take advantage of powerplay with Rahul. I know it is a risk but then you can follow that opening pair with your two most experienced players in Kohli and Rohit. So if the plan doesn't work and if they both get out early, you have your best players rebuilding for you. If we do go ahead with this strategy, one worrying aspect for me here is that I can't think of a single Indian player who can go after bowlers and plays at that number 5 position. I just feel that number 5 is one position higher than where I would like to see Hardik bat. I had very high hopes from Deepak Hooda but he hasn't done anything in the last few years. One other name that popped into my mind is Suryakumar Yadav. He plays good cricket shots but can also be unorthodox if required. However, seeing him in the last few years at Mumbai, I do feel he is now limited to that top 4 position. The only safe bets are Kedar Jadhav/Dinesh Karthik. Ideally, I would not put either of them or Dhoni (If he returns) in this position but as I said, in my opinion, we just don't have anyone in India right now who can bat at that position. One option that I see is if Prithvi Shaw becomes a little more consistent in T20 cricket, we can push Pant to number 5.

Absolutely disagree with having Pant open. He has proved himself to be an effective number four who can score boundaries for fun in the middle overs and keep the run rate high, something that no one else barring Hardik can do in this side. Also disagree with Pandey at 4, he has shown that he should bat in the top 3 in T20s to be effective. Iyer is a similar type of player who is more aggressive and so can be a decent option at 4 if needed.
Rahul should be an undisputed selection in the T20 team now, he has shown himself to be a quality player in two consecutive IPLs playing very different roles and has also been a very quick scorer during the powerplay. I would even take the risk and push Kohli to open, he plays best when he has six overs of fielding restrictions to score a few boundaries, rotating strike constantly in the middle overs phase before unleashing in the death overs. Dhawan works best when he plays as the aggressor in an opening partnership and Rahul isn’t the ideal player for that.
Agree with @Aalay that the number 5 position doesn’t really have any standout candidates right now, the best option would be to push Pant down to 5 and have Iyer at 4 which doesn’t seem ideal to me. DK seemed like the best player in that role but relying on him for consistency would be a huge gamble. Maybe Shankar could play here if he plays like he once did for the Daredevils, with the Pandyas batting ahead of him if it’s overs 12-13 already?
Bhuvi, Bumrah and the spin twins are fairly easy selections on the bowling front. For me, I would still have Ashwin in contention, he has shown that he can still bowl decently in T20s especially in the powerplays if needed and can also add batting depth if required.

[HASHTAG]#Good[/HASHTAG] luck Rohit as he has best chance to break record of Gayle (105 sixes in t20i) Rohit need 4 more to beat Guppy & Gayle
# Ewin Lewis hits 2 t20i century at Florida vs india in 2016.he is playing today and tomorrow but Russell opt out for first 2 game
# Sunil Narine gets Rohit 7 times in t20i.Every 19 delivery he gets #1 rohit

Well the Playing XI looks pretty Solid on paper atleast more batting and bowling options available.
I would have picked Rahul over Dhawan. Rahul has a T20I century at this same venue and he, to me, is a T20 specialist. Cant fault much on the selection of the allrounders and the bowlers. Saini was expected to get his debut, and he has shown why he is so highly rated. Excellent debut for him. Tall, lanky and with very good pace, he is going to be hot in the scheme of things for the T20 World Cup next year. Same with Khaleel, who I hope this time, is persisted with.
Brilliant bowling from Jadeja today. 4 overs for 13 and a wicket. Jadeja looks a super transformed player. He showed signs of this in the WC itself. He is putting himself in that position where he is undroppable.
