“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…
T20 WC 2024: “It doesn’t matter if you have…”, Team India gets a warning before the World Cup
India will begin their T20 World Cup campaign against Ireland on June 5 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. Team India. (Photo Source: Twitter) Rahul Dravid’s tenure as the head coach of the Indian team will end in June after the 2024 T20 World Cup. The legendary Indian player had a lot of success during his career with the Under-19 team or India A, due to which he was made the head coach of Team India in the year 2022, replacing Ravi Shastri. But Dravid is yet to win an ICC trophy for the senior national team. It is time to end India’s long trophy drought. The T20 World Cup is starting on June 2. Before this, West Indies legend Brian Lara has made a big statement about Team India. Brian Lara gave advice to Rahul Dravid Ahead of the big tournament, former West Indies cricketer Brian Lara sent a clear message to Dravid and suggested him to plan for the final stages of the tournament. India have not won any trophy in an ICC tournament since 2013. The Windies legend said that no matter how many big names are in India’s team, it is important to focus on having a clear strategy on how to win the World Cup. It does not matter that Team India has big star players: Brian Lara When asked about some concerns about Team India ahead of the ICC tournament, Lara said, “Whether it is T20 or 50 overs in the last cup, I think they don’t have any final plan about how they will proceed. It doesn’t matter how many superstars you have. It all depends on how you win this World Cup, what are your plans and how you build your innings or attack policy. I hope Rahul Dravid brings his players together and makes a plan to win the T20 World Cup for India.” Rahul Dravid also has last chance This will be India’s second T20 World Cup under Dravid’s tenure as head coach. In 2022, the Rohit Sharma-led side reached the semi-finals but lost to champions England in the semi-finals. Overall, India has only one title in the history of this T20 tournament, which it won in the first year (2007) under MS Dhoni’s leadership. Since then, India reached the semi-finals twice in the next seven seasons and finished runners-up once. Team India’s first match will be on 5 June India will begin their T20 World Cup campaign against Ireland on June 5 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. Then on June 9, there will be a thrilling match against arch-rivals Pakistan at the same ground. Apart from the above three, co-hosts USA and Canada are the other two members in Group A. India played their last international match in this format in January at home. After this, India will now play a warm-up match against Bangladesh in New York on June 1.

I don’t care what people are saying about Starc or what is being discussed about him on social media. According to me, there should be no discussion about performance because big players always leave their mark in important matches. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?
