I think I have found a perfect playing combination and a squad of 15 for the T20 World Cup, with great batting depth and 6 bowling options.

 

1 Rohit 

2 Pant

3 Kohli(assuming he's nt going anywhere)

4 Sky

5 Hooda

6 Pandya

7 Jadeja 

8 B K

9 Bumrah

10 Siraj/Shami/ArshDeep 

11 Chahal

Reserves Bishnoi/Deepak Chahar

Rohit

Pant

KLR

SKY

Pandya

Jadeja

Bhuvi

Harshal/Arshdeep

Bumrah

Yuzi

 

Backups :-

 

Kishan

Hooda

DK

Bishnoi

Arshdeep

Umran/Avesh

 

That will be the team for next t20 world cup.

Very similar to my team... Few differences

 

I had KLR and Hooda as backup

I had Kuldeep or Ashwin instead of Bishnoi just for lack of experience

My third pacer is Shami because the tournament is in Australia. Pity that will be taken by Harshal..

Pity? His death over economy in IPL is 10.5. Australia will not change that. These two can't be even compared.

There's no batting depth here. The tail starts essentially at 7. 

Thakur/Ashwin are not of much use with ball. Have to keep specialist bowlers, no easy option.

On paper. But T20 is all about form. It is a very unreliable side in both departments. 

in t20 form can come n go anytime

Warner was a prime example last yr

shami has struggled in international t20 forever, even when he has done well in IPL for last few yrs it hasnt translated much in international

Only example i know are Yuvraj, Dhoni kind of guys who overstayed in this format. In the name of experience we backed wrong guys. Hasn't won a world T20 since 2007.  We will be doing the exact same thing.

My preferred 11 (All top teams have more or less similar chances on paper before the tournament):

 

  • Openers: KL & Gill (or someone like Pant) ... good against both pace and bounce
  • #3: Hooda ... more or less the opposite of a "typical" Indian top order #1-3 batsman ... usually, won't waste balls (ok to get out trying to take the initiative. A quick 20-30 from him can set it up for the middle order #4-7. If he scores more, a bonus) ... can bowl an over or two too 
  • #4: SKY ... 360 degrees batting and no messing around when at the crease
  • #5: SDP ... Ind's top LOI cricketer 
  • #6: DK ... Ind's most experienced and versatile (360 degrees too) in form lower middle order batsman
  • #7: Tewatia (or Pant) ... an impactful finisher and a good fielder ... If Ind wants a bowling AR, Sundar is a dependable bowler and a useful batsman who can even bat in the top 3
  • #8: Moshin ... left arm pace bowler who can bowl at most stages 
  • #9: Bumrah ... A relatively experienced most stages pace bowler 
  • #10: Umran ... For X-factor ... The 11 has 4 pacers including Umran. Therefore, if he has an off-day, others can cover up 
  • #11: Yuzi (or equivalent) ... a wicket taking spinner
