The explosive batter who was recently honored by the state government for helping India win the T20 World Cup with his valiant contributions in the T20 World Cup in the USA and West Indies where he scored 199 runs and took a match-turning catch of David Miller in the final has been rested for the T20I series in Zimbabwe to manage the workload.
