India's warm-up match against Bangladesh on Saturday will be the only chance for the 2007 T20 champions to have some match practice before beginning their campaign against Ireland on June 5, which gives every reason for captain Rohit Sharma and chief coach Rahul Dravid to try and find answers to their dilemmas related to the preferred playing XI.
India are placed in Group A, alongside archrivals Pakistan, Ireland, co-hosts USA and Canada. They will play their first three matches in New York, before taking on Canada in the concluding group game in Florida.
