Kotak was speaking ahead of India’s second T20I against West Indies, with the team continuing to manage the workload of its senior players while also giving opportunities to emerging talent.
India currently lead the series 1-0, thanks to Shreyas Iyer’s stunning maiden T20I century in the series opener.
Kotak said that while such rotation can occasionally come at the cost of results, India have enough depth to ensure that their performances do not suffer significantly.
“Some games, we are not playing Bumrah, giving him rest. Some games, some other senior players also not playing.
“So, obviously, any team in the world will require bench strength and somewhere and somewhere you have to give them chances.
“So, sometimes results do suffer, but normally I think we have enough strong bench strength that our results also don’t suffer as much.”
