Thanks to this inning, India won the third T20 match after the double super over against Afghanistan at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on January 17 and won the series 3-0. After this match, Rohit had a special conversation with JioCinema and Sports18 and answered some interesting questions. 1) To what extent was India able to execute its plans in the 3-0 series win? We discussed a lot before the series. I had not played for a year, so I discussed ideas with Rahul bhai (Dravid). Although I was watching the match, I was not playing. I understood some things, so we wanted to implement them and also do something different. We wanted our bowlers to bowl differently, no one was comfortable bowling in the power play, so we had to use them there. Some people were not comfortable bowling in the death overs, we asked them to bowl there. 2) How difficult was it to recover from the World Cup defeat? I don’t think anyone needs inspiration here. All boys want to leave their mark. Not everyone gets a chance to play for India, so I’m sure all the boys who are here want to make the most of it. You can see that they are taking full advantage of the opportunities they are getting. With that approach, my and Rahul Bhai’s work has become very easy. We just need to provide clarity. 3) What did you do to reach this form after losing the World Cup? The 50 over World Cup is the biggest World Cup for me. It is not that I do not give importance to the T20 World Cup and the World Test Championship. But, we have grown up watching the 50-over World Cup. And when it happens in India it is a very big tournament. Unfortunately we could not win. The whole team was sad. I’m sure all the fans were sad too. But now we have another opportunity and we will focus on how to use that opportunity and win the World Cup. 4) How much practice did you take to play that reverse sweep and switch hit in the third T20I? I have been practicing it a lot in the nets. You have to play some shots to put pressure on the bowlers. When the ball is spinning and you can’t hit it straight, you have to try something new. I have been practicing reverse sweep and sweep for the last two years. You might have seen me playing him once or twice in Test matches. You have options and it is up to you how you use those options. The ball was turning and getting grip today, so I thought I would play with turn rather than going out and hitting it hard in front of the wicket.

I don’t think the team for T20 World Cup will be selected on the basis of Afghanistan series- Parthiv Patel
Team India is ahead 2-0 in the T-20 series against Afghanistan. Ravindra Jadeja, Parthiv Patel and Akshar Patel. (Image Source: BCCI/Instagram) After taking an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series, India will take on Afghanistan in the third and final T20I at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru tonight. Before this match, JioCinema and Sports18’s cricket experts Saba Karim and Parthiv Patel talked about the role of Mukesh Sharma in the death overs and the change in India’s strategy in the final match and also answered many more questions. 1) On Mukesh Kumar’s role in Death Overs Parthiv Patel: I think he can definitely bowl in the powerplay, he has the skill. He has played a lot of first class cricket and knows what length to bowl, he is not a swing bowler. He is someone who hits the seam and hits back-of-length kind of balls. However, he has improved a lot as a death bowler. India may consider batting first in the third T20 match and put pressure on the opposition team. You can’t question anyone’s abilities but Mukesh Kumar has definitely improved as a death bowler. Will India bat or bowl first in Chinnaswamy? Saba Karim: I hope they chase the target in Bengaluru. Not only to keep the bowlers under question but also to test the depth of their batting. Lower-order players like Akshar Patel and Washington Sundar can be looked at. After the arrival of Hardik Pandya, you can understand whether you want to go with three seamers or spinners in the playing eleven or not? Parthiv Patel: We can also consider preparing slow wickets. The upcoming T20 World Cup will be held in America and West Indies where slow wickets are expected. Players may be tested for similar conditions. We all know that Chinnaswamy is a flat batting wicket, but turn can also be found on that wicket and India can consider doing so. In this way you can test your players and prepare the team for the World Cup. How important will this match be for Rohit Sharma Parthiv Patel: I do not see this series as a selection series for the World Cup. I don’t think any player’s performance or not will impact their chances of World Cup selection, especially when you are talking about Rohit Sharma or Virat Kohli. Once you pick them for the series, it means they are going to the World Cup. For Rohit Sharma personally he would like to score runs. He loves to create an atmosphere and if he is involved in it, he will want to make it big. Also read: Know who is Caribbean pacer Shamar Joseph, who is being discussed a lot in the cricket world?
Jitesh Sharma or Sanju Samson? Who will get the T20 World Cup ticket, Aakash Chopra told
Jitesh Sharma has scored 31 runs in the series so far. Jitesh Sharma, Sanju Samson and Aakash Chopra (Image Credit- Twitter) Former cricketer Aakash Chopra believes that Jitesh Sharma will get a chance before Sanju Samson in the third T20 match against Afghanistan in Bengaluru. Jitesh Sharma had a brilliant performance in the first T20I, scoring 31 runs in 20 balls in Mohali, but failed to open his account in Indore. Before the upcoming T20 World Cup, this will be India’s last match in the shortest format and with that, the team management can try a few things in this match. However, Chopra believes that Jitesh Sharma should get more chances in the final playing XI as he is yet to cement his place. He also said that Samson will not be judged for just one match and pointed out that the cricketer always finds himself in a difficult situation. Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel that the question is whether you should keep Jitesh or Sanju at number 6. If Jitesh had completely confirmed his place, if there was no question mark before Jitesh’s name, he would definitely be going to the World Cup, you could have thought about Sanju. However, there is no confirmation yet regarding Jitesh. The former opening batsman further said, “There is another side to this also. Suppose you give Sanju a chance, will you test him in a match? This is wrong. Whoever you try, give him at least three chances. This has happened with Sanju throughout his career.” Rohit and Kohli are certain to play third T20 match: Chopra India captain Rohit Sharma failed to open his account in the first two T20Is of the series. On the other hand, Virat Kohli missed the first T20 match and played the second match, but could not take advantage of his good start. Thus, Chopra expects both the cricketers to be included in the playing XI for the third T20I against Afghanistan. Chopra said, “Rohit has not scored any runs, so he will have to play. Virat Kohli has played only one match so far, so he will have to play. Yashasvi has also played only one match, so he will also have to play.” Also read: Virat will go to Ayodhya to attend the Pran Pratistha ceremony on January 22

He believes that both Rohit and Yashasvi Jaiswal will try to take maximum advantage of the powerplay. ‘Then you will need power hitters in the end’ Chopra said on his YouTube channel that it will be very important to take advantage of the first six overs in West Indies and New York. As the ball gets a little older and the field opens up, the ball will not hit the bat well and it will become difficult to score runs. He further said, then you will need power hitters in the end, because the pitches will be like this. If you look at it from that perspective, you need to take advantage of the first six overs, and that’s where Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal will try their best to do that. Apart from this, Aakash Chopra has talked about the performance of the Indian captain in the ongoing T-20 series against Afghanistan. Rohit Sharma has not been able to open his account in both the T20 matches played so far, because he was out for zero in both the matches.
