Rohit Sharma
There are high expectations from Indian skipper Rohit Sharma in this T20 World Cup. He is known for his aggressive hitting, especially in the first six overs of the batting powerplay. Although his form in the recently concluded IPL is not promising. As he struggled to make big runs.
But everyone is well aware of the kind of batting abilities he possesses. The 2023 ODI World Cup is the best example, where he scored tons of runs. Everyone praised how he utilized the batting powerplay. And if things go well this time, there is no doubt that we can see the same Rohit Sharma once again.
Yashasvi Jaiswal
22-year-old Yashasvi Jaiswal can also pose a challenge to opposition bowlers. Like Rohit Sharma, he is known for his big hits in the batting powerplay. But apart from this, he is also capable of constructing partnerships in the middle overs. By providing a left-handed option in the top order, Jaiswal could become an asset for Team India.
Since India lacked left-handed batting options in previous tournaments. Although the inclusion of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shivam Dube, and Rishabh Pant provides a rich variety of left-handed options.
Suryakumar Yadav
Known as “Mr. 360” of India, SuryaKumar Yadav has already established fear in opponent bowlers, especially in the T20 format.
He has been known for his unorthodox style of batting since his debut, as he came across as nothing more than a bully to the bowlers. Possessing numerous shots and knowing how to utilize the field, he has been incredible with his bat. Since T20 cricket has always been his strong suit, he is also one player whom people can bet on from the Indian side in this T20 World Cup.
