Chennai Super Kings (CSK) head coach Stephen Fleming stresses on the need for India to get their game plan right for the T20 World Cup 2024. The India squad for the marquee tournament will be picked at the end of April. With Indian players doing well in IPL 2024, selectors have a lot of headaches to deal with when it comes to picking the right players.
CSK coach’s advice for India ahead of T20 World Cup
“The thing for me is, what type of game plan do they (India) want to play during the World Cup? What have they identified as the right style of play for India in an away condition,” Fleming said in a media interaction on Saturday.
“Then put players into that rather than just picking players and trying to find a game plan. I would be looking at the style of play that I would want, and then pick the players that are in-form and can perform the role that will best win that design. It’s probably one of the hardest jobs in world cricket, isn’t it, being an Indian selector. On one hand, very jealous as a New Zealander looking at the amount of talent that is on show and new players every game sort of pop up,” he added.
