Rohit Sharma (Pic Source-Twitter) Rohit Sharma is going to take command of the Indian team in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024, co-hosted by USA and West Indies, starting from June 2. Let us tell you that this information was recently given by BCCI Secretary Jai Shah. On the other hand, earlier there was a possibility that all-rounder Hardik Pandya would lead India in the T20 World Cup, but due to injury, Pandya is currently out of Team India. Because of this, the Indian team management has had to make Rohit Sharma the captain of Team India in the upcoming multinational tournament. However, between the last T20 World Cup and the upcoming T20 World Cup, Rohit Sharma has played only three T20 International matches. However, due to Pandya’s fitness problem, the management had to return Rohit back. Let us know about 3 reasons due to which making Rohit the captain in the T20 World Cup is a wrong decision. 1.

After this, Hardik Pandya was seen leading Team India in most of the T20 series. However, after the injury suffered by Hardik in the World Cup 2023, the Indian team management has once again had to return to Rohit Sharma. So, Rohit’s captaincy figures are satisfactory in T20 format, but the management which had snatched the captaincy from Rohit, is now handing it back to him.

The batsman’s absence from the Ranji Trophy continued as the wicketkeeper-batsman, who plays domestic cricket for Jharkhand, also skipped the final round of matches that began on Friday. A few days ago, it was claimed in media reports that a senior BCCI official had instructed Kishan to play in Jharkhand’s final league match against Rajasthan in Jamshedpur from February 16.

Jay Shah had said, “The players have already been told over the phone and I am also going to write a letter to them that if the chairman of selectors, coach and captain want this from you, then you will have to play red-ball cricket.” In Kishan’s absence, Kumar Kushagra is handling the responsibility of wicketkeeping for Jharkhand. Jharkhand, which has only one win and ten points from six matches so far, faces Rajasthan in a Ranji match on home soil. Kishan, who had sought a break midway through India’s tour of South Africa, has been training in Baroda with his new Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya. Apart from Ishan Kishan, Deepak Chahar and Shreyas Iyer are also not included in the last round matches which started at different places. However, Iyer had lower back and waist problems. These three players – Kishan, Chahar and Iyer – were specifically asked to play for their respective state teams in first-class cricket.
