The Indian team is doing a great performance in bat and ball in the ongoing ODI World Cup. They have played six matches so far and have won all of them. India are the only unbeaten team in the tournament so far. Their position is at the top of the league table. This year there are glimpses of good things from Rohit Sharma’s team. Many people think that Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah will win the World Cup once again on the soil of the country.
The ‘Men in Blue’ still have three more matches left in the group stage of the World Cup. Then there’s the semi-finals and a win in the last four battles will secure India a spot in the finals as well. In total, Rohit Sharma can play a maximum of six matches in the World Cup. The competition will end on the 19th at Ahmedabad ground. After that, the Indian cricketers will have to enter the field in the T20 series against Australia from the 23rd. The board can spare the star players from the pressure of continuous cricket. Senior cricketers like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul did not participate in Twenty20 games last year. Their chances of playing in the country against Australia are not special. Even coach Rahul Dravid and T20 captain Hardik Pandya may be kept out. Team India can enter the field with the second-row team.
Certainly, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will not play. Hardik Pandya, who led the country in T20 last year, recently suffered an ankle injury. He could not take the field against New Zealand in the World Cup, at the same time it is heard that he is not against England next Sunday. He might make a comeback in the remaining matches, but he will be taking a long rest after the World Cup. Not staying in India vs Australia five-match T20 series. Suryakumar Yadav was seen in the role of vice-captain while Hardik was the captain. This time, ‘Mr. 360 degrees’ is likely to debut in the role of captain. Coach Dravid will rest before the South Africa tour. VVS Laxman may sit in the dugout as a coach in the India vs Australia series.
Members of the Asian Games gold-winning team will essentially be given places in the five-match series against Australia. Watch out for Tilak Verma, and Rinku Singh. Tilak Varma performed well against the West Indies but failed against Ireland. He spent the Asian Games mixed with good and bad. On the other hand, Rinku Singh has achieved consistent success for the national team after the IPL. He played a big innings in T20 against West Indies. Yashasvi Jaiswal has been successful, he has also scored a century in the Asian Games. In the absence of Rohit Sharma, Yashwi’s place as an opener is ripe in the team. Rituraj Gaikwad is likely to be seen opening the innings instead of Shubman Gill. Also, Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan, and Washington Sundar get a chance in ‘Men in Blue.’
