Team India should go with three spinners- Sunil Gavaskar
Sunil Gavaskar has suggested to Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid that they should go with 3 spinners in the playing 11. Jasprit Bumrah will be the main fast bowler, while the vice-captain has chosen Hardik Pandya as the fifth bowling option.
Talking in an interview given to Dainik Jagran, Gavaskar said, ‘Balanced bowling attack is most important in West Indies, so India can go with three spinners and two fast bowlers, with Hardik Pandya as the backup fast bowler. I think this will maintain the balance of the team.
Sunil Gavaskar was asked about the Indian T20 World Cup 2024 squad, to which he replied, ‘I believe this is a team that has a good mix of experience and youth. Along with Rohit, Virat, Surya, Bumrah, there are young players like Yashasvi, Rishabh, Shivam, who strengthen the team.
Gavaskar was also asked which teams will make it to the semi-finals of the tournament. Answering this, he said, ‘It cannot be said who the four semi-finalists will be because in my view all the teams look balanced.
