Summary
- Shreyas Iyer and Ravi Bishnoi have been added to India's T20I squad.
- Washington Sundar and Tilak Varma are out due to injuries.
- Varma's injury might require surgery, impacting T20 World Cup chances.

India's T20I squad has been bolstered by the inclusion of Shreyas Iyer and Ravi Bishnoi for the series against New Zealand. This change comes as a result of existing injuries to key players. Spinner Washington Sundar has been officially ruled out due to a side strain.
Sundar sustained the injury during a recent ODI match and has been advised rest. Ravi Bishnoi joins as his direct replacement. Additionally, Shreyas Iyer has been added to the squad for the initial three T20Is, stepping in for Tilak Varma.
Varma's injury, an abdomen issue, is reportedly severe and may require surgery, casting doubt on his participation in the T20 World Cup, which begins on February 7th.
