When Ravi Bishnoi was included in India`s T20I squad for the away series against South Africa later this month, it, perhaps, was the clearest indication about his place in the think tank`s long-term plans with the T20 World Cup 2024 in mind.

With only six T20Is remaining for India ahead of the showpiece, it can be assumed that the 23-year-old leg-spinner has moved ahead of veteran Yuzvendra Chahal in the pecking order, for now at least. Chahal is not a part of India`s T20I side to face the Proteas.
