After the end of the final match of the ongoing ODI series tomorrow at the Port of Spain in Trinidad, team India will assemble at the Brian Lara stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad, where the first of the five-match T20I series will commence on July 29.
The entire team India squad, including the ones who were not part of the ODI series, arrived at Trinidad today, comprising the likes of skipper Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Dinesh Karthik, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Ravi Bishnoi.
It is worth of a mention that, former India captain Virat Kohli and lead pacer across formats Jasprit Bumrah have been rested for the tour of the Caribbean.
Bad time for the groin injury. That @imVkohli won’t be part of the T20 team to the West Indies will mean he gets less games to get form back.

Additionally, wicket-keeper batter KL Rahul, who was set to make a comeback with the imminent T20I series, is now set to miss at least the first three T20Is, after returning with a positive COVID-19 test report a few days ago. The 30-year-old in fact, has not boarded the flight to the Caribbean as yet, as he is yet to clear the mandatory fitness test as well.
