T20 World Cup 2024: Indian cricket team’s mission T20 World Cup is continuing. The team has won all its matches so far, only the match against Canada could not be played due to rain, but Team India managed to win all the other matches and has also entered the Super 8. By winning its first match in the Super 8, it has taken another step towards the title. Although there are no shortcomings in the path of victory, but there are some weak links, which if not fixed in time, can increase the problem.
The opening pair of Rohit and Kohli is not able to become a hit
Team India is fielding the pair of captain Rohit Sharma and former captain Virat Kohli in this year’s World Cup. But so far this pair has not given a start that can be discussed. From the league to the Super 8 matches, these batsmen have not been able to make a partnership of more than 50 runs even once. The same Virat Kohli who is superhit at number three and scores runs quickly, is proving to be a complete flop when he comes at number two. When Virat Kohli flopped in the league stage, it was said that it is not a matter of form here, this is such a pitch where runs are not being scored, but even after reaching West Indies, runs did not come from his bat. On a pitch where everyone from Rishabh Pant and Suryakumar Yadav to Hardik Pandya scored runs quickly, Kohli was seen yearning for every run.
The left-arm fast bowler dominates against Rohit Sharma
If we talk about captain Rohit Sharma, there are no good signs there either. Rohit’s biggest tension is the left-arm fast bowler. From IPL to T20 World Cup, left-handed pacers have troubled Rohit a lot. In front of him, Rohit looks helpless in a way. Talking about this year i.e. 2024, Rohit Sharma and the left-arm fast bowler have faced each other in 19 innings so far in the powerplay of T20 cricket. Rohit has scored only 128 runs in 98 balls and he has been out 8 times. Here his average is only 16. That is, there is no need to say anything, the figures are telling the whole situation themselves.
Middle order and bowlers are making the match for India
Thanks to Rishabh Pant, Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya, who come in the middle order and understand the situation and fix it. After this, the bowlers are also doing their job in a better way. Now it remains to be seen when the pair of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will create a stir on the cricket field. The Indian team still has to play two more matches in the Super 8. There is a match with Bangladesh on June 22, while the match with Australia is on June 24. In such a situation, it is very important for both of them to be in action, so that preparations can be made for the battle of semi-finals and finals. At present, it would be better to wait before reaching any result.
