There is no alternative to Pandya…. Whatever he can do when he is fit…- Agarkar said on Hardik being appointed as VC.
India captain Rohit Sharma and Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) chief selector Ajit Agarkar addressed a press conference on Thursday, May 2. This press conference was regarding the T-20 World Cup for which the board had recently announced the team. The selectors have appointed Hardik Pandya as the vice-captain for this World Cup, about which there is a lot of talk. Let us tell you that Pandya was named as the vice-captain of the Indian team during the World Cup 2023. After the all-rounder’s disappointing performance as captain and batsman in the current IPL, it was being said that someone else could be appointed as vice-captain in place of Pandya. Agarkar addressed the issue and said that he has confidence in Pandya’s ability. Ajit Agarkar gave a big statement regarding Hardik Pandya He also said that as a player, Pandya has many aspects which make things easy for any captain. Agarkar said, “There was no talk about the vice-captaincy. He has played all the matches for Mumbai Indians so far. We have to play the first match only after a month and a few days. If he is fit, there is no substitute for what he can do. Agarkar Said that he is making a comeback after a long time from injury. We hope he is working on it. He can give a lot of options and balance to Rohit when bowling. Hardik has recovered from an ankle injury before the IPL. There is a lot of anger among the fans over making him the captain of Mumbai in place of Rohit. Hardik, who was struggling with poor form in the IPL as the captain of Mumbai Indians, has surprised the cricket world by being made the vice-captain of the T20 World Cup team. Pandya played his last match for India in the ODI World Cup in October 2023 against Bangladesh.
Who should be included and who should be excluded? Take a look at Team India’s Strongest Playing XI for T20 World Cup 2024
The 2024 edition of the T20 World Cup will start from June 2. Team India (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The 2024 edition of the T20 World Cup is to be played jointly between West Indies and USA from June 2. In this series, BCCI has recently announced a 15-member team for the tournament. In this article, we are discussing the strongest playing XI of Team India for T20 World Cup 2024. Let us tell you that the Indian team is part of Group A with arch-rival Pakistan. Apart from this, the other three teams are Ireland, America and Canada. Rohit Sharma will lead the team, while Hardik Pandya is the vice-captain. The 15-member team has four spinners, three fast bowlers and a fast bowling all-rounder in the form of Hardik-Sivam Dubey. Team India Strongest Playing XI for T20 world cup 2024 Top-3 – Let us talk about the strongest playing XI of the Indian team in the T20 World Cup. If the Indian think tank looks at all its options, the top three batsmen in the order will be Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli. There is no doubt that Rohit and Jaiswal will open the innings. Whereas Virat will play at number-3. These three batsmen are in good form in IPL 2024, which can benefit the team. Middle Order- India has many options in the middle order. After Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav is at number-4 and Sanju Samson or Rishabh Pant is the option at number-5. Samson is continuously scoring runs. In such a situation, he should get a chance. Now the matter seems to be stuck between Hardik and Shivam Dubey at number-6. Since Hardik is the vice-captain of the team, he can be given priority. Lower Middle Order and Bowlers- The lower order will be Ravindra Jadeja or Axar Patel. The Men in Blue should go with Axar Patel, as he is a better bowler and better batsman than Jadeja in the T20 format. The last four positions will be for bowlers. Where there can be a combination of 2-2 or 3-1 for pacers-spinners. Team India has both Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal. Both bowlers are in excellent form. But if the role of frontline spinner has to be played alone then Yuzvendra Chahal can be the first choice. Three pacers Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj and Arshdeep Singh may get a chance. If Team India goes with two spinners then Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh will be the fast bowlers. India’s Strongest Playing XI for T-20 World Cup 2024: Rohit Sharma (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah.

“They can retire whenever they want” – Sixer King said about Rohit and Virat
Great former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh has said that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are entitled to retire as T20 cricketers whenever they want.

Because this will reduce the burden on (senior players) who play 50 overs and Test matches. After this World Cup, I would like to see many young players come into the team and prepare the T20 team for the next World Cup.” Let us tell you that India’s group stage matches in the T20 World Cup will be played on various grounds in the United States, which includes the match with the United States in New York on June 12 and Canada in Florida on June 15.

Big update: Team India will not tour Pakistan for Champions Trophy 2025
Indian Cricket Team (Image Credit- Twitter) Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi has given a big statement regarding India-Pakistan cricket relations. He said that if Team India tours Pakistan for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, they will consider a bilateral series with India. In 2021, Pakistan was named as the host of the Champions. Next year’s Champions Trophy is one of the biggest tournaments to be held in that country. This will be the first time that Pakistan will host an ICC tournament in its entirety since the 2009 attacks on the Sri Lankan national cricket team. According to sources in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Team India may refuse to go to Pakistan for the ICC Champions Trophy. He has also said that changing the venue for this tournament or implementing a hybrid model can also be considered. The source also said that it is important to obtain permission from the government to visit Pakistan, and given the current tense relations between the two countries, it may be difficult to get permission. Team India will not go to Pakistan for Champions Trophy 2025 A BCCI source was quoted by NDTV as saying, “Forget bilateral series… Team India cannot even tour Pakistan for the Champions Trophy. The venue may change, so a hybrid model is also possible. The Indian board will need permission from the government to tour, currently our relations with Pakistan are also not that good. Champions Trophy is an ICC event, so it will be a difficult decision for India, but without the government’s order/green signal, I don’t see it happening in the near future, it’s impossible. The last bilateral series between India and Pakistan was played in 2012–13. India had refused to go to Pakistan to participate in the Asia Cup in 2023. As a result, the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) adopted a hybrid model for the event, with Sri Lanka co-hosting with Pakistan. India and Pakistan last faced each other in the 2023 ODI World Cup.
Ajit Agarkar and Rohit’s meeting regarding T-20 World Cup will be held on this date, this big player’s card may be cut
Team India (Photo Source: Getty Images) BCCI Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar can meet captain Rohit Sharma on April 28 to make the final selection of the team for the upcoming T20 World Cup. According to media reports, Indian selectors can hold a meeting with captain Rohit Sharma in Delhi on 27th or 28th April because Rohit Sharma will be present in Delhi on this day. Actually, Mumbai Indians’ match with Delhi Capitals is on 27th April in Delhi, where the selectors will also be present. Looking at the current situation, it seems that there is going to be a lot of discussion in this meeting regarding the place of wicketkeeper. Jitesh Sharma, who was leading in this race, ipl 2024 They have failed to perform well in the current edition of the IPL, while players like Sanju Samson, Dinesh Karthik and Rishabh Pant have performed brilliantly so far. After this, there can be a big discussion regarding the number four slot also. Rohit Sharma and Ajit Agarkar will talk on many issues regarding T20 World Cup Apart from this, there can also be a lot of discussion regarding the fast bowling unit. Jasprit Bumrah has cemented his place in the team, but Mohammed Siraj, whose name was earlier considered almost certain, has failed miserably in IPL 2024. In such a situation, now it has to be seen whether the selectors and the team management support Siraj for the T20 World Cup or trust someone else. The selectors have options like Arshdeep Singh, Mohsin Khan, Mayank Yadav, Vaibhav Arora or Khalil Ahmed for the mega tournament. According to a report in Dainik Jagran, Rohit and Agarkar will also talk about Yuzvendra Chahal, who was not included in the BCCI central contract at the beginning of the year. However, the leg spinner has performed brilliantly in the IPL so far, taking 12 wickets at an average of 18.08 in seven matches. They also have the option of Kuldeep Yadav and Ravi Bishnoi as specialist spinners. Hardik Pandya’s form is also a topic of discussion. The new captain of Mumbai Indians has not been able to prove himself yet in IPL 2024 and there is a lot of pressure on him at this time. However, with India not having many options in terms of fast bowling all-rounders, Pandya may get a place in the 15-member squad. Players like Shivam Dubey, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rinku Singh will also be discussed during the meeting.
