2026 T20 WC 1st 11

[Ultimate_Game]

There should be no place for Gill, Ruturaj, KL, Sundar in the T20 squad. We don't need "consolidators" in T20, and we should prioritize multi-dimensional folks. My playing XI and squad:

 

Abhishek

Jaiswal

Pant/Samson (wk) - Pick one

Tilak

SKY (c) - Ideally wouldn't want him in the team but unfortunately he isn't going anywhere

Rinku

Pandya (with Nitish Reddy on the standby when Pandya is injured)

Axar

Arshdeep

Bumrah

Varun C

 

Others in the squad:

Riyan Parag

Nitish Reddy

Shivam Dube (He has improved)

Harshit Rana

Ramandeep

Sai Kishore

Mayank (if he's fit)

 

Starting 11 has plenty of pace and spin options and batting depth till 8. And no. 9 is Arshdeep who can slog brainlessly.
