Yashasvi came to open with Rohit Bhajji gave chance to Kuldeep in place of Chahal Expressed confidence in Sanju Samson instead of Rishabh Pant
New Delhi. The Indian cricket team will start its campaign in the ICC T20 World Cup against Ireland on June 5 in New York. Cricket experts have started announcing their team regarding Team India's playing eleven in the T20 World Cup. Former Indian team off-spinner Harbhajan Singh has also announced his playing eleven. The Indian team has not won any ICC trophy since 2013. Rohit Sharma and company have reached America this time with the intention of ending the long-standing title drought.
In Star Sports' 'Game Plan' show, Harbhajan Singh has chosen Yashasvi Jaiswal along with Rohit Sharma as openers. He has fielded an experienced young player. Virat Kohli has been given a place at number three while Suryakumar Yadav has been fielded at number four. Sanju Samson has been given a chance in place of Rishabh Pant as wicketkeeper. Sanju will bat at number five. Harbhajan said, 'According to me, Rohit Sharma will play and Yashasvi Jaiswal will also be with him. Virat Kohli will play at number three and then there is Suryakumar Yadav. So I would say that you should play Sanju because he is in very good form.
Hardik Pandya and Jadeja given place
Harbhajan Singh has placed an all-rounder in the middle order. He has placed Hardik Pandya at number six who can put the team in a good position with his explosive batting, while Ravindra Jadeja is set to play at number seven. Jadeja's arrival will strengthen the team in batting and bowling. 39-year-old Harbhajan Singh said, 'Hardik Pandya will bat at number six while Ravindra Jadeja will play at number seven. He is an all-rounder.'
Kuldeep Yadav was dropped from the team.
In the bowling department, Harbhajan Singh has preferred Yuzvendra Chahal over wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav. He has given a chance to Arshdeep Singh, Jaspreet Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj in fast bowling. Bhajji said, 'I would like to play Yuzvendra Chahal with three seamers. Arshdeep Singh, Jaspreet Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj will be seamers.' Harbhajan says that if the conditions are not favorable for spin, then Shivam Dubey can be played. Bhajji said that he does not think there is much scope for change.
