Possible India T20 Top 6 Post World Cup

[bsriharsha]

Not sure Rohit wants to play till 2024. He's already 36. 

 

But if he wants to , keep him in opening. His 4 overs of hitting can set a great platform and his fielding can be managed. 

 

Kohli should probably leave T20 though. He can play fast but he can't be a destructive hitter.

Should be Pant

 

Unfortunately I don't think Pant will don the gloves anytime soon even if he regains batting fitness.

 

We should phase him into the team gradually. First play him as a specialist middle order bat in bilateral ODIs , Tests at home and then ease him into his full time role.

I believe there is a T20 series after the WC against Australia.I think we should select all youngsters for the series.

Since WC  just 6 months away from now , Rohit & VK , Jaddu most probably will be included by Selectors. 

3 Reasons for that -  

- The form they are in . If Rohit maintains this form he is definitely in .

- Majority of pitches in WI are slow and requires skill to accumulate runs post PP . VK fits the bill with his experience. Bang , bang may not work as we saw  in last WI tour by our next gen batters.  I think near white wash it was?

-  Most probably this is the last  T20 WC for Rohit & VK  and they will be given a chance to have a go at the cup .

 Too much of WC23 in mind ...

Rohit should play on merit. He's the best 6 hitter we got.

[neel roy]

Think about the pitches. In Windies pitches are abbrasive. 160 is the winning score in many matches.. its not easy to swing through the line.. and ball gets old very fast.. we need genuine hitters and enough firepower to score above average totals..kohli is a must as i can see india being 26/2 in these matches.. having rinku at the end is the best option and forget everything else, he is the only player in india after sky who can hit an OLDISH ball. All his innings has come when the ball is already 14/15 overs old.. that is a massive advantage.. my 14 will be 

 

jaiswal

rohit

kohli

tilak

sky

rinku

pandya

Pant

samson

jadeja

kuldeep

bumrah

arshdeep

shami ( will be unplayable in abrasive wickets)

Siraj

You forgot Rayudu 

He has retired from all forms of Indian cricket. Please stay up-to-date

[User30786]

Without SKY and Gill there will be no fun tbh

[singhvivek141]

Anyway, whoever is selected...we need to make sure not to waste Jaiswal & Rinku anymore.

Jaiswal is a power Dasher which we're looking from a long time, someone who can go bang bang from bowl 1, he also has experience of playing in Windies.

 

We don't have a better MO batter/finisher in T20's than Rinku, very calculative batter..can play orthodox as well as un orthodox shots, is a power hitter and then an amazing outfielder. He just need 10-12 balls to get set before going bonkers. I still have some doubts on his ability to play deliveries closer to off side wide line, but he is best in what he is doing consistently.

[Need4Speed]

I will keep Gill as an opener only if:

either score very briskly at the start to complement Jaisawal

or if slightly lesser strike rate then..give me consistent 20/30s..so others can go berserk around him..

 

else..modern day Rohit is looking better..

If India win this WC, Kohli and Hitman will make plans to play not only in the  next T20 WC but also the ODI WC in 2028.

don't rule out kohli for 2027 ODI WC in particular

Lets be grateful Kohli doesnt have a son, he may have waited for him to bat for India before retiring.

 

Almost a certainty Kohli will be playing in the 2027 ODI.

what happened to shaw, is he done ?
