#2 Playing with an extra all-rounder and Mohd Shami
In case, team India prefers Mohammed Shami over Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ravindra Jadeja might be included in the playing XI at the expense of Yuzvendra Chahal. Since his comeback in the ODI format, Shami has bowled with pace and aggression. He was even named the man of the series in the ODI series against New Zealand.
On the other hand, Bhuvi hasn't been at his best since his return from a back injury. Kohli likes to have genuine fast bowlers in the side and thus, Shami might get more chances. In Bhuvi's absence, team India can get in Jadeja in the lineup to increase the batting depth.
Jadeja's all-round abilities will provide flexibility to the team.
Combination 2: Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli (C), Vijay Shankar, MS Dhoni (WK), Kedar Jadhav, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohd Shami, Jasprit Bumrah
