Samson, who batted at No. 4 in Mumbai, has been ruled out owing to a knee injury, forcing India to make a forced alteration to their batting lineup. Jitesh Sharma of Vidarbha and Punjab Kings has been called up as a substitute, although he is unlikely to see action right away.

Rahul Tripathi, who has been with the group for some time, is expected to make his T20I debut. In IPL 2022, the 31-year-old was exceptional for Sunrisers, hitting 413 runs with a strike rate of over 160. Tripathi, who represents Maharashtra, would be excited to make his international debut on his home turf.
