Team India (Photo Source: Getty Images) Team India has remained undefeated in the T20 World Cup 2024 so far. India has not lost a single match in this tournament so far, despite this the team has not been able to secure its place in the semi-finals. The team has not yet reached the semi-finals from Group 1. At the same time, England and South Africa have made their place in the semi-finals from Group 2. If we look at the latest situation of Group 1, then it is almost certain that Team India will reach the semi-finals. In such a situation, there is a question in everyone’s mind that if Team India reaches the top 4, then who will they face there. Who will they face between England and South Africa. So let us tell you the complete equation of the semi-finals. As per the format of the 2024 T20 World Cup, the winner of Group 1 will face the runner-up of the other group in the semi-finals. Hence, India’s opponent in the semi-finals will be decided based on the results of the last two matches of the Super Eight round – India vs Australia and Afghanistan vs Bangladesh. India vs England: Looking at the above mentioned India semi-final qualification scenarios, it is highly likely that Team India will top Group 1 and take on England on June 27 at the Providence Stadium in Georgetown, Guyana. India lost to England in the 2022 edition of the T20 World Cup semi-final. So far, India and England have won two out of four matches in the T20 World Cup. India vs South Africa: For this match to take place, India need to finish second in Group 1, which will only be possible if Australia beat India by a big margin to drop their net run rate while Bangladesh beat Afghanistan in their final Super Eight match. it scenarios This will give India a chance to reach the semi-finals as the second-placed team after Australia, who will later face England in the semi-finals. India have a 4-2 head-to-head record against South Africa in the T20 World Cup. However, they lost their last encounter in Perth in 2022.

“If Gautam Gambhir comes”- said Ganguly on becoming the next head coach of Team India

Gautam Gambhir and Sourav Ganguly (Image Source: Getty Images) Gautam Gambhir’s name is being put forward for the next new head of the Indian team. Rahul Dravid’s tenure will end after the T20 World Cup 2024. It is believed that Gautam Gambhir will be the next head coach of Team India after Rahul Dravid. Kolkata Knight Riders appointed Gautam Gambhir as a mentor ahead of IPL 2024 and KKR won their third title under his mentorship. At the same time, former Indian team captain and BCCI President Sourav Ganguly said that he would be happy if Gambhir becomes the coach. Ganguly is in favor of the Indian coach. Rahul Dravid’s tenure ends after the T20 World Cup 2024. He has been handling the responsibility of the head of the Indian team since November 2021. Sourav Ganguly expressed his opinion on Gautam Gambhir becoming the head coach While talking to Revsports, Sourav Ganguly said that, “I am in favour of having an Indian coach because our country has immense talent. Our country has highly skilled players who have made valuable contributions to Indian cricket and they should be a part of the system.” When Ganguly was asked if Gambhir, who is leading the race for the coach’s post, would be suitable for this role, he said, “Has he (Gambhir) applied? Because first he has to apply and only then will he be able to get this post. I think May 27 was the last date for application.” Ganguly said, “If Gambhir has applied, then you must have seen how he worked for KKR this year. You could see his hunger and passion for winning. If he has applied and the board decides to give him this post, then I will be happy. I believe that he is a good candidate for this post.” Ganguly says that India is a strong contender for the title in the T20 World Cup being jointly hosted by the USA and West Indies. He said, “India has a very good chance of winning the World Cup. India has to play like a T20 team. There is a lot of talent in this team.”

“First of all you have to remove IPL from the minds of the players”- Irfan Pathan said in support of Hardik

As India moves to West Indies and United States of America (USA) for T20 World Cup 2024, they will look to end their 11-year-long ICC trophy drought. Indian team captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Rahul Dravid would like to win the ICC trophy at all costs. As a coach, Dravid has been excellent in bilateral series, but he has not been able to repeat it in ICC tournaments. The current Indian team is facing captaincy problems as Rohit and Hardik Pandya have become a matter of concern. Pandya replaced Rohit as the captain of Mumbai Indians and is being considered as the next captain of the Indian team after being made the vice-captain for the T20 World Cup 2024. Former Indian fast bowler Irfan Pathan feels that the first task for Dravid will be to get the players out of the bad form of IPL 2024. Irfan Pathan once again supported Hardik Pandya Hindustan Times quoted Irfan Pathan as saying, “I will not even discuss it. What’s done is done. I will just say that this is my expectation from you: I want you to win matches for India. This is the roadmap, and you are an important part of the team and a match winner. Being an all-rounder, I would say he will play an important role. How many fast bowlers have we taken? Apart from Hardik and Shivam Dubey, we have only three specialist bowlers.” He further added, “So when the time comes, these 3-4 overs will become very crucial. Remember, when we play day matches in West Indies they will allow us to play an extra spinner. So that is where he comes into the plan, he needs to feel good and believe that he can contribute and hence the IPL talks should not even be a one-off. India has been placed in Group A of the T20 World Cup 2024 along with teams like Pakistan, Ireland, the United States and Canada. The top two teams of the group will find their place in the Super-8 stage of the tournament. India will start their tournament with a match against Ireland in New York on June 5. This match will be followed by an Indo-Pak match on June 9 at the Nassau County Stadium in New York.
