DTVHINDIWhen Rohit Sharma comes as captain, two things suddenly change – statement of the former opener
Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has praised Rohit Sharma’s captaincy for including bowling options in the top six and using them effectively in the first T20I between India and Afghanistan. Team India restricted Afghanistan to 158/5 after being invited to bat first in Mohali on Thursday, January 11. The hosts chased a small target with six wickets and 15 balls remaining and started the three-match T20 series with a win. Aakash Chopra admired Rohit Sharma’s captaincy In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Chopra expressed his surprise at India’s decision to field three spinners in the playing XI. However, he also praised Rohit for bringing a different approach to captaincy. They said that, “India kept three spinners in the team. I was a bit surprised because there were only two fast bowlers and Shivam Dubey was with them. However, when Rohit Sharma comes as captain, suddenly two things change.” The former India opener said that the experienced captain included Shivam Dubey as an all-rounder in the lineup and also used him effectively. Chopra said that, “First of all, the Indian team plays with an XI which has a bowler in the top six and that bowler also gets a chance to bowl. That was fantastic. As soon as one wicket fell, he gave the next over to Shivam Dubey.” Chopra said that this move ensured that Rohit has plenty of bowling options available for the death overs. He further said that, “Shivam Dubey dismissed Ibrahim Zadran in that over. He was then stopped and later brought in from the other end so that he could get another over. When they did that, it made sure there were a lot of options available at the end.” Also read: Suresh Raina does not want to see Virat opening in T20

India will take on Afghanistan in the first game of the three-match series at the Punjab Cricket Association’s IS Bindra Stadium on Thursday, January 11. Virat Kohli, who is part of Team India for this series, will not be available for the first match due to personal reasons. In Kohli’s absence, the Indian captain will be entrusted with the responsibility of leading the inexperienced batting line-up as India look to finalize their preparations for the T20 World Cup 2024.

He also faced some throwdowns and interacted with the young players of the team. It is noteworthy that, Rohit last played a T20I match in the semi-finals of T20 World Cup 2022 where India had to face a humiliating defeat against England by ten wickets. Rohit’s performance with the bat in that tournament was disappointing, scoring just 116 runs in six innings at an average of 19.33 and a strike rate of 106.42. Rohit Sharma is the second highest run scorer in T20I However, his records in T20I are excellent and he is the second highest run scorer in this format. He has scored 3853 runs in 140 innings at an average of 31.32 and strike rate of 139.24. During this period he has also scored four centuries. Therefore, the Indian captain would like to play aggressive cricket once again in the upcoming series before the T20 World Cup 2024.

We have seen that many young players from India perform very well in the IPL and they have left their mark in the T20 format as well. I think the coach and selection panel should understand what the players need and what kind of players they need on which pitches. It is not so easy to select players with the kind of talent India has: Graeme Smith The former South African captain further said, ‘India has no dearth of talent and that is why they face a lot of difficulty in selecting players.

If Rohit Sharma says I am available, how will you remove him- K Srikkanth
Former Team India cricketer K Srikkanth Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are expected to play in the upcoming T20 World Cup, which is scheduled to start from June 1. Let us tell you that Rohit and Virat have not played a single match in this format since the T-20 World Cup semi-finals. But he has been recalled to the team for the upcoming three-match series against Afghanistan. Srikanth said that if Rohit is available for selection then the team management cannot exclude him. He said the 36-year-old player is sad after losing to Australia in the ODI World Cup final and would like to retire with the T20 World Cup, which will be held in West Indies and USA. Srikkanth also said that, Virat Kohli will definitely feature in the tournament as he is in great form. K Srikkanth’s big statement regarding Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli In a video on his YouTube channel, Srikkanth said, “Virat Kohli is sure. He is in great form. Rohit Sharma is probably confident about how he scored in the World Cup. He will regroup and try to perform well in the IPL. If Rohit Sharma says I am available, you cannot say that you will drop him. At the end of the day, Rohit Sharma is also hurt by the fact that he has lost a World Cup. He would like to retire at least with the World Cup in hand. He was there in the 2007 World Cup. He would like to do something similar, win the World Cup and then retire. Virat Kohli, considered one of the greatest players of all time, has not yet won the T20 World Cup. He was the top run-scorer in the last edition of the T20 World Cup and is in ‘great form’ at the moment. Regarding him, Srikant had said that, “Virat Kohli would definitely like to win the T20 World Cup. Apart from this, the T20 World Cup took place only 13 months ago last year. Virat Kohli was in extraordinary form. If they say they’re available, I don’t think you can skip them.

A new earthquake is about to come in Indian cricket, selectors do not want to see Rohit and Kohli together in T20Is.
Virat Kohli is unlikely to be selected in the T20 series against Afghanistan Team India (Image Credit- Twitter X) The Indian cricket team’s recently concluded South Africa tour has ended on a good note. Let us tell you that during the Test series of this tour, the team has made history by winning the Cape Town Test match. So now once again after red ball cricket, in white ball cricket, the Indian team is going to face the Afghanistan cricket team in a three-match T20 series. However, the future of former captain Virat Kohli and captain Rohit Sharma in the shortest format of the game is in limbo. It is noteworthy that Rohit and Kohli, who are called the heart and heartbeat of Indian cricket, played the last match for India against England in the T20 World Cup in November 2022. Both the players have not played any T20 match for almost a year. However, both the players have expressed their desire to play in the T20 World Cup to be held in West Indies and USA in June this year. So now the question arises whether the selectors of the Indian team are ready to select both the players. Let us tell you that according to some recent media reports, Rohit’s place is not in danger in T20 cricket, because he was seen performing amazingly in the World Cup 2023. Apart from this, the place of injured Hardik Pandya is also considered confirmed. But this is not the case with Virat Kohli. Kohli may be out of T20 If PTI’s latest media reports are to be believed, Kohli’s strike rate is a big reason, and the selection committee led by Ajit Agarkar is not keen on including Rohit and Kohli in the team together. It is noteworthy that selectors chairman Ajit Agarkar had reached South Africa some time ago. Here he talked to both the experienced players and both of them declared themselves available for the T20 World Cup. Well, now it will be worth watching whether Kohli gets a place in T20 cricket for India or not?
