Only a few weeks are left for the T20 World Cup 2024 to start. In such a situation, there is a constant discussion about how the Indian team will be for the world. The Indian team for the tournament has not been announced yet. In such a situation, former players are continuously choosing their respective teams. Meanwhile, Yuvraj Singh, who was a part of the 2007 T20 World Cup winning Indian team, has given some important suggestions. He told who should be India's wicketkeeper for the World Cup. Apart from this, he has also talked about the future of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Yuvraj Singh has been made the ambassador of World Cup 2024.
In favor of Suryakumar Yadav
Yuvraj suggested, “Suryakumar Yadav is the leading player of India. The way he plays, he can change the direction of the match in 15 balls. If India has to win the T20 World Cup 2024, then Surya's contribution will be important. Among the bowlers, I would like to see leg spinner Yuzvendra Chahal in the team, because he is bowling very well.
Karthik got the place on this condition
Yuvraj Singh has been impressed by Dinesh Karthik's performances for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League this year. He believes that the experienced keeper should get a place in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup only if he is assured of a place in the playing-11. Yuvraj said, “Karthik is batting well, but the thing about DK is that last time (2022) they selected him and he did not get a chance to play the T20 World Cup. If Karthik does not get a place in the playing eleven then there is no point in selecting him.
Shivam Dubey should get a place
Yuvraj said, “Both Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson are in great form and obviously they are young. I would like to see Karthik in the team, but if he does not play then you will choose someone who is young. I want to see Shivam Dubey in the team. He has been in and out of the team, but he has been batting very well in this IPL and is a player who can be a game changer. There are many other boys who have been playing in the team for some time, but I would like to see Shivam Dubey in the team.
Rohit-Virat gave this suggestion!
Yuvraj suggested that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli should stop playing T20 International cricket after the T20 World Cup is over and focus on other formats. Yuvraj said, “As you grow older, people start talking about your age and they forget about your form. These guys have been great players for India and they deserve to retire whenever they want. I am in T20 format. I want to see.” More young players, because it reduces the burden on experienced players to play ODI and Test matches, I want many youngsters to come into the team after the T20 World Cup and get a place in the T20 team for the next World Cup.
