DTVHINDIT20 World Cup 2024: Team India’s probable playing XI for the final match, Rohit Sharma will drop this player
The final of T20 World Cup 2024 will be played between India and South Africa. Team India (Photo Source: Getty Images) India and South Africa have reached the final of the T20 World Cup 2024. The title battle between the two teams will be played in Barbados on 29 June. Before this match, everyone has the same question in their mind, what will be Team India’s playing XI for this match. In this match, both the teams would like to play their strongest playing 11. Team India has remained undefeated so far and has not made any changes in the playing 11 in the entire tournament. But now it will be interesting to see whether there is any change in India’s playing XI for this final match or not. Veteran batsman Virat Kohli may be in bad form but everyone knows that he is a big match player and the team would not want to reduce his confidence by changing his batting position, especially in the final match. In such a situation, it is difficult for Yashasvi Jaiswal to get a chance. Rohit has also said after the victory against England that Virat will show his true form in the final. At the same time, Pant gives the option of a left-handed batsman at number three, so his place is confirmed. Sanju Samson may get a chance in place of Shivam Dubey Shivam Dubey has not been in good form throughout the tournament, but despite this the team has shown faith in him and has given him continuous opportunities. But after getting out on a duck against England, the management is unlikely to give him a chance in the final. Sanju Samson can be given a chance in place of Dubey. Samson can play at number four or five. He is a great batsman. But it will be worth seeing whether the Indian team management will suddenly take the risk of bringing Sanju Samson into the team in the final match or not. Team India’s bowlers are in great form at the moment and every player looks in good rhythm. However, Jadeja is still searching for his rhythm. Jadeja has not scored many runs from his bat but he is also a big match player, so the team will definitely give him a chance in the final. Apart from him, the rest of the bowlers have looked in great rhythm so far. India’s playing XI: Rohit Sharma (captain), Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Suryakumar Yadav, Shivam Dubey / Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah.
Virender Sehwag appeals to Team India to win the T20 World Cup in honor of Rahul Dravid, read the big news
India is going to face England in the second semi-final of the T20 World Cup. Rahul Dravid and Virender Sehwag (Image Credit- Twitter X) Rahul Dravid, one of the greatest cricketers of all time, has never won the Cricket World Cup. India was joint winner of the Champions Trophy 2002 with Sri Lanka, while India lost the 2003 World Cup final against Australia. Apart from this, the 2007 Cricket World Cup under Dravid’s captaincy was even more disastrous, the team was eliminated from the group stage itself. However, in 2011, the Indian team won the ICC Cricket World Cup, but Dravid could not make it to that team. So in the year 2012, he retired from cricket, but after that he was seen playing IPL for a few years. Although, he did not get much success as a player, but when he took over the coaching of India’s Under 19 team, he got a lot of success, during this time some players also made it to the senior team. After this, when he took over the coaching of India’s senior team, he did not get the same success as the Under 19 team. Under Dravid’s coaching, the Indian team reached the semi-finals in the T20 World Cup 2022. At the same time, Team India was considered a strong contender to win the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 held in India, but India had to face defeat at the hands of Australia in the final. So now Dravid’s coaching career is going to end after the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. In such a situation, keeping this in mind, former Indian opener Virender Sehwag has requested Team India that they should win the World Cup to honor Dravid. Virender Sehwag made a special appeal to Team India Let us tell you that in a discussion with Cricbuzz before India’s second semi-final match against England in the ongoing T20 World Cup, Virender Sehwag said- We played the 2011 World Cup for Sachin Tendulkar. So this T20 World Cup can be for Rahul Dravid. At least as a coach he should get a chance to win a World Cup and be called a World Cup winner, which he did not get as a player.
“We have to bring such batsmen in the team who….”- Big statement by head coach after Afghanistan’s exit
We need to bring in more batsmen who can score runs by being consistent like openers and also give opportunities in the game – Jonathan Trott Jonathan Trott (Photo Source: X/Twitter) T20 World Cup 2024: Afghanistan has been eliminated from the tournament after losing the semi-final against South Africa. After this defeat, Rashid Khan and company’s dream of playing their first World Cup final has been shattered. Afghanistan has impressed everyone with its performance in the ongoing tournament. The team defeated teams like New Zealand and Australia, which would be wrong to call an upset. Meanwhile, after Afghanistan’s exit, the team’s head coach has given a big statement. Jonathan Trott says that the team will learn a lot from this World Cup. He has also expressed his displeasure over the team’s batting. The middle order has disappointed – Jonathan Trott In the semi-final match against South Africa, the team’s batting disappointed a lot. The team was all out for just 56 runs in 11.5 overs. Talking to ICC about the team’s batting, head coach Jonathan Trott said, I’m sure people will learn from this experience, we’ve got a better tournament than the last 50-over World Cup in November and it’s just about going step by step and hopefully we’ll learn from today. South Africa bowled really well and when they saw how the pitch behaved they knew how to bowl in the conditions and I think that’s bad because we haven’t really fired, the middle order batsmen haven’t fired enough in this World Cup. We have become more dependent on Gurbaz and Zadran- Head Coach The team has won every match in which the team’s openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran have given a good start. But this did not happen against South Africa, which led to the defeat. The head coach says that the team has become too dependent on Gurbaz and Zadran. There is a need to bring such batsmen in the team, who can score runs consistently like openers. We have perhaps become a little too dependent on Gurbaz and Ibrahim to score runs. Nobody else has scored runs. And we have to find the reason for this, we need to bring in more batsmen who can score runs by being consistent like openers and also give opportunities in the game. So this is our big project going forward.

The entire Australian team is a fan of Virat Kohli, everyone wants to play like him on the 22 yards
Virat Kohli always works hard to do better and better – Glenn Maxwell. (Image Credit- Instagram) Virat Kohli is proving unsuccessful in making an impact with his bat in this World Cup, he had made a great start in many matches but could not convert that start into a big innings. In such a situation, now Team India is facing Australia, just before that the players of this team have given a statement about Kohli. Hearing this, everyone is surprised for once and the players of the Australian team have praised batsman Virat a lot. Virat Kohli is not able to play a big innings in Super-8 Yes, in the Super-8, Team India has defeated Afghanistan and Bangladesh so far, Virat Kohli has failed to play a big innings against both these teams. Virat scored 24 runs against the Afghan team, while he was bowled out after scoring 37 runs against Bangladesh. In such a situation, fans are hoping that he will play an important innings against Australia. Australian players get scared upon hearing Virat Kohli’s name *Virat Kohli always works hard to do better and better – Glenn Maxwell.*According to Maxwell, whatever Virat has achieved is unbelievable.*I am a fan of the way Virat puts his heart and soul into every match – Pat Cummins.*Marsh said- Virat has performed brilliantly against Australia’s star bowlers. There is fear of Virat Kohli’s name in the Australian team What is the opinion of former great players regarding this match? Captain Rohit has also failed so far On the other hand, like Virat Kohli, captain Rohit Sharma has also been a super flop in his batting, he played a strong innings only against Ireland. After that, in every match he has been out while trying to hit a big shot, which is a big headache for Team India. In such a situation, everyone will be looking at Rohit’s batting and it will be important to see how he performs. If experts are to be believed, Hitman is playing the last T20 World Cup of his career.
