T20 World Cup: Yuvraj Singh cut the card of this player
Yuvraj Singh on T20 World Cup 2024: The Indian team for T20 World Cup 2024 has been announced. Meanwhile, the players whose teams have not been able to progress in the IPL will soon leave for America, where all India’s matches will be played in the league stage. Meanwhile, now speculations are also being made as to what could be the playing eleven of the Indian cricket team when it takes the field in the first match. Star player Yuvraj Singh, who won the T20 World Cup for the Indian team in 2007, has also expressed his views on this entire matter.
Yuvraj Singh has been made ambassador by ICC
ICC has appointed Yuvraj Singh as ambassador for the T20 World Cup. While talking to ICC, Yuvraj Singh said that if there is talk of including any one player among Sanju Samson and Rishabh Pant in the playing eleven, then he would like to see Pant in it. Yuvraj said that both Sanju and Pant are in very good form, but Rishabh is a left-handed player and I think he has a lot of potential to win matches for India, Pant has done this many times before. Let us tell you that among the 15 Indian players selected by BCCI for the T20 World Cup, both Sanju Samson and Rishabh Pant have been included as wicketkeeper batsmen. But everyone knows that only one person will get a chance in the playing eleven.
What did Yuvraj Singh say about Hardik Pandya?
Meanwhile, for some time now there has been a lot of talk about Hardik Pandya, the captain of Mumbai Indians and vice-captain of Team India in IPL. Questions were raised about his captaincy in the IPL, while he could not play even a single amazing innings with the bat in this tournament. In such a situation, his team is already out of IPL. When Yuvraj Singh talked about Hardik Pandya, he clearly said that the BCCI selection committee looked at how the players have performed in international cricket and then looked at the IPL form. Selection has not been done only on IPL form. He said that if you just look at IPL form, Hardik has not done well. Given his past performances for India, what he has done for India, it is important that he is in the team. I think his bowling is going to be important and his fitness will also be important.
Jaiswal should open with Rohit
Although captain Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been selected as openers for the T20 World Cup in Team India, there is also a possibility that Kohli will open the innings with Rohit. At the same time, Yuvraj wants Rohit and Yashasvi Jaiswal to open the innings while Virat Kohli should come at number three. He said that I think Rohit and Jaiswal should open the innings. He said that he would like to see some combination of left hand and right hand because it is difficult to bowl two combinations all the time.
Team India will play its first match against Ireland on June 5.
Although this year’s T20 World Cup will start from June 1, but Team India’s first match will be against Ireland on June 5. A great match is also to be played between India and Pakistan in New York on June 9. Apart from Pakistan and Ireland, USA and Canada have also been included in Team India’s group. The Indian team will be seen clashing with all of them. If India makes it to the top 2 in its group, then the team will go straight to the Super 8, where it will compete with the top teams of the other group.
