(Photo Source: Twitter) A warm-up match was played between India and Bangladesh on June 1 at Nassau County International Stadium in New York. The Indian team won this match.

According to former cricketer Sanjay Bangar, Yashasvi Jaiswal will not be included in the starting playing XI of T20 World Cup 2024 and this is the reason why the team management did not support him even in the warm-up match. According to Sanjay Bangar, Virat Kohli should open with Rohit Sharma in the T20 World Cup 2024. This will also improve the combination of the team. Sanjay Bangar told Star Sports, ‘I think the team management has decided that Yashasvi will not play in the first match. If Yashasvi was in their plans, he would have definitely played in the warm-up match. It is clear that Virat Kohli will be seen opening.’ Virat Kohli’s stats have always been very good, no matter which order he plays in: Sanjay Bangar Sanjay Bangar further said, ‘The team has all the quality players. It is not at all that they cannot score runs against left-arm spinners. The players of the Indian team have scored a lot of runs against left-arm spinners. Not only this, the performance of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma has also been very good against them. The team can make its plan according to the situation. There is no doubt that Virat’s statistics are very good no matter in which order the team makes him bat.’ Let us tell you, India defeated Bangladesh by 60 runs in the warm-up match. All the players from the team performed very well. Now India has to play its first match of this important tournament against Ireland on June 5 at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.

“Needless to say that he is a great player, but…”- Sourav Ganguly said about Virat
Virat Kohli and Sourav Ganguly (Photo Source: X/Twitter) Former captain Sourav Ganguly believes that if India has to do well in the T20 World Cup, then Virat Kohli will have to bat with freedom like he did for his franchise RCB in the IPL. Kohli was the highest run-scorer in IPL 2024 and he gave a befitting reply to his trolls by showing aggressive play in the middle overs. Ganguly also advised that he should open the innings with captain Rohit Sharma. His strike rate was also the best in his IPL career this season. The RCB star batsman scored 741 runs in 15 matches.

It’s confirmed! Gautam Gambhir will be the next head coach of Team India, BCCI will announce soon
Rahul Dravid will remain the head coach of Team India till the T20 World Cup. Gautam Gambhir and Rohit Sharma (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The big question is who will be the next head coach of Team India’s men’s team after Rahul Dravid. According to some media reports, Gautam Gambhir is reportedly ready to take this responsibility. After his successful tenure as the mentor of the Kolkata Knight Riders franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, it is believed that Gambhir will be the next head coach of Team India. It was believed that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) could discuss the role of head coach of the Indian team with many big Australian players as well as other IPL coaches like Stephen Fleming and Andy Flower. But since Gambhir has come into the race, the discussion on all these names has stopped. Gautam Gambhir will be the next head coach of Team India It has been said in many media reports including India Today that Gautam Gambhir will now take over the post of head coach in place of Rahul Dravid. This is also being said because Kolkata Knight Riders won the IPL 2024 title under Gambhir’s mentorship, before that Gautam Gambhir was also associated with Lucknow Super Giants. BCCI had invited applications for the post of head coach till May 27. It is being said that Gautam Gambhir had also applied for it. BCCI was also talking to former New Zealand player and Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming for the post of head coach. However, for some reason, things did not work out with those players. Gautam Gambhir was the captain of Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2012. Then Kolkata won both its IPL titles in the year 2012 and 2014 under the captaincy of Gambhir. After this, the KKR franchise could not win any title for 10 years. Gautam Gambhir was made the mentor of Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2024. Under his mentorship, Kolkata Knight Riders won the IPL 2024 title.

(Photo Source: Getty Images) Before the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, the Pakistan team has lost the T20 series against England 2-0. In the fourth T20 match, the Pakistan team had to accept defeat by 7 wickets against England. In this match, Pakistan’s bowlers and batsmen flopped badly. The defeat against England before the T20 World Cup will wake up the Pakistani team. But in this match, Babar Azam has broken Virat Kohli’s big record by playing a short innings. Babar Azam surpassed Virat Kohli Pakistan captain Babar Azam scored 36 runs off 22 balls in the fourth T20 match against England. Which includes five fours and a six. With this, he has become the highest run-scorer in T20 International cricket against England and has reached number one in the list. Before Babar, this record was in the name of Indian superstar Virat Kohli. Now Babar has broken this record of Kohli. Babar has scored 660 runs in T20I against England. Whereas Virat has scored 639 runs in T20 against England. Highest run scorer in T20 cricket against England: Babar Azam- 660 runs Virat Kohli – 639 runs Aaron Finch – 619 runs Mohammad Rizwan- 560 runs Martin Guptill – 471 runs Pakistan batsmen failed miserably against England Not a single Pakistani batsman could perform well in the T20 series against England. Due to this the team lost the series. Earlier, Pakistan had also lost a match in the T20 series against Ireland. Babar Azam definitely got a good start many times, but he could not convert the good start into a big innings. Talking about Babar Azam’s career, he has scored 4023 runs in 119 T20 matches for Pakistan. He has become the second batsman to complete 4000 runs in T20 international cricket. Before him, Virat Kohli has achieved this feat. England won by 3 wickets over Pakistan – In the fourth T20 match, England captain Jos Buttler won the toss and decided to bowl first. After this, while batting first, Pakistan’s team was all out for 157 runs and could not even play the full 20 overs. Usman Khan scored the highest 38 runs for the team. After this, Jos Buttler and Phil Salt gave England a quick start. Salt scored 45 runs, Buttler was out after scoring 39 runs. On the basis of this, England easily achieved the target at the loss of three wickets.
“He is such a player who can single-handedly take away the match from the opposition team”- Shakib is praising Rohit a lot
An exciting match is expected between the Men in Blue and the Bengal Tigers at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on June 01. Shakib spoke about how Sharma led the Indian team in the 50-over World Cup. In a video shared by Star Sports, Shakib Al Hasan said, “I think the way he has led India in the last few years has been fantastic. His record as a captain is tremendous. I think all the players respect him as a leader of the team. He is a player who can single-handedly take away the match from the opposition team.” Rohit Sharma has participated in all the seasons of T20 World Cup Bangladesh will enter the tournament on the back of a disappointing performance, having recently lost the T20I series to co-hosts USA by a margin of 1-2. In contrast, the Men in Blue will be coming into the tournament after playing an intense Indian Premier League (IPL) season. Bengal Tigers’ first practice match against the United States of America (USA) was cancelled due to heavy rain and this match against India will be their second practice match before the tournament. India, on the other hand, will play only one practice match before the tournament begins. Both Rohit and Shakib are the only two players who have played in all the editions of this T20 World Cup so far. The 37-year-old all-rounder is the highest wicket-taker in the history of the tournament with 47 wickets. While Rohit is the fourth-highest run-scorer in the tournament with 963 runs in 36 innings.
Team India SWOT Analysis: What are India’s strengths and weaknesses for the T20 World Cup, know everything here
Team India has not won a single World Cup after 2011. Team India (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The fever of IPL 2024 is over and now the eyes of cricket fans are on the T20 World Cup. The Indian team has reached USA for the T20 World Cup and is preparing for this ICC event with full vigor. The Indian team has not won any ICC trophy for the last 11 years. In such a situation, there is only one question in everyone’s mind at this time whether the Indian team will be able to win the T20 World Cup title this time. The team selected by the selectors for this T20 World Cup looks great on paper. But whether these players will be able to end India’s drought of ICC trophy or not is a big question. In this article today we will tell you about India’s team for T20 World Cup (SWOT Analysis) We will talk about what is the biggest strength and where mistakes can happen. Strength (India’s biggest strength) Team India has an army of experienced and young players India’s biggest strength in the T20 World Cup 2024 is their experienced players. Captain Rohit Sharma is one of those players who has played all the 8 seasons of the T20 World Cup so far and with him there are players like Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja, Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, so there is no dearth of experience. All of them have long experience of T20 cricket, as well as an understanding of the situation in the West Indies. However, the Indian team is playing in America for the first time. In such a situation, India is considered a strong contender to win the World Cup. For the top order, India has players like captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli who can take the team out of any pressure situation and when it comes to playing aggressive cricket, the team has players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Suryakumar Yadav and Shivam Dubey who can hit fours and sixes from the very first ball. However, it will be interesting to see who will be included in the playing eleven. Weakness (India’s biggest weakness) While Team India has a very strong top order, the question is who will play the role of finisher now? There seems to be some weakness in the case of finisher. Players like Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Shivam Dubey bat in the top 5 for their respective teams in IPL. Hardik Pandya’s bat has also been completely silent this year. Ravindra Jadeja’s performance as a finisher in T20 has not been such that he can be trusted. In such a situation, this can be a matter of concern for the Indian team. Opportunities (Which player will have the chance) The Indian team for the World Cup is balanced in terms of experience and ability. Yashasvi Jaiswal performed brilliantly in red ball cricket during the England series and now he has the best chance to make a similar impact in white ball cricket. It will be interesting…
