Cricket News : Three senior Indian players rested for final T20I against WI

Having won the three-match T20 International rubber 2-0, the Indian team management has decided to rest three of their senior bowlers -- Umesh Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav -- for the third and final Twenty20 game against the West Indies. Pacer Siddharth Kaul has been added to the India squad for the final match. The men-in-blue have already pocketed the series by winning the first two games comprehensively. India won the first T20 in Kolkata by five wickets, before skipper Rohit Sharma's masterclass century helped the hosts take an unbeatable 2-0 lead with the 71-run win in Lucknow. The absence of Umesh, Kuldeep and Bumrah will also give the likes of Washington Sundar, Shahbaz Nadeem and Kaul a chance to show their mettle ahead of the 2019 World Cup.
