Sourav Ganguly chose the second best team, the reason for Rinku not getting a place

T20 World Cup 2024 will start from June 2. 20 teams will participate in this tournament jointly organized by America and West Indies. Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly has described India and Australia as the two best teams for the T20 World Cup 2024. Ganguly said that India and Australia are the finalists for the ODI World Cup 2023. It is expected that India and Australia will maintain their dominance in the T20 World Cup 2024.

Indian team is in Group A

Ganguly said, “India and Australia are the two best teams of the tournament. I am sure that they will maintain their dominance in America and West Indies also. For the T20 World Cup 2024, 20 teams have been divided into 4 groups of 5 each. The top 2 teams from each group will qualify for the Super 8. Indian team is in Group A. Apart from India, Pakistan, Ireland, Canada and America are also included in this group. Whereas, the Australian team is in Group B. Apart from them, England, Namibia, Scotland and Oman are also included in this group.

Ganguly praised the team

India will play its group stage matches in the United States and begin their campaign against Ireland on June 5. Super-8 matches will be held in Caribbean countries. Regarding the Indian team, Ganguly said, “This is a great team, all the 15 players included in the team are match winners. I am sure Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid will choose the best.

Because of this Rinku did not get a place

Rinku Singh did not get a place in the 15-member Indian team selected for the T20 World Cup 2024. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar said it was one of the toughest decisions taken by the committee. Ganguly said, “The World Cup is to be played in West Indies. The wicket may be slow there and the wicket may help the spinners. In such a situation, the selectors wanted to go with the spinner. Maybe that's why Rinku didn't get a chance, but for Rinku this is just the beginning.”
