The T20 World Cup 2022 loss has paved a way for transition in Indian Cricket Team. Various media reports have suggested that the Men in Blue will include fresh faces in the side with Hardik Pandya being the new skipper as seniors will focus on the ODIs considering the Cricket World Cup 2023 slated to take place this year.
