In Pant's absence, Dhruv Jurel is expected to be India's wicketkeeper during the West Indies series. Jurel, who is currently in Lucknow playing against Australia A, kept wicket in the final two Tests of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy.

Jurel averages 50.15 in 26 FC Matches, 36.82 in 5 Tests. So a good back up. Pant 47.50 in FC and 44.50 Tests but his S/R is near 80, that's the big difference.

Almost the same batting line-up - Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sai Sudharsan and KL Rahul, besides Padikkal is expected to be picked for the Tests. The all-rounders will be Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar and Axar Patel, all spin-bowling all-rounders, who will be joined by Kuldeep Yadav.

Dhurv Jurel, who also scored a century against Australia A, will retain his place
The three pacers will be Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna. Bumrah's participation will be dependent on how the Asia Cup pans out

Likely 15: Shubman Gill (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudharsan, Devdutt Padikkal, Dhruv Jurel, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Nitish Reddy and N Jagadeesan.
