Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag was identified for his explosive photographs. He believes that’s the model of cricket wanted in T20Is if the Males in Blue are to develop into profitable.
Sehwag make clear why it is vital for India to spend money on gamers who’ve the power to bat with an ultra-aggressive strategy and never simply have those that take a little bit of time to get going.
Whereas Yashasvi Jaiswal smashed 100 off simply 49 balls within the Asian Video games quarterfinal towards Nepal, captain Ruturaj Gaikwad (25 off 23) and Tilak Varma (2 off 10) struggled to get going.
It was a sensational cameo of 37*(15) from Rinku Singh that helped them breach 200 and Virender Sehwag feels extra such gamers are wanted within the shortest format.
Here is what he posted on X after the win over Nepal:
“I simply really feel we’ve too many batters who play in the identical gear. Must nurture extra explosive gamers who can play high gear, particularly in T20 cricket. Many extra within the Rinku and SKY mode wanted to develop into a harmful facet.”
India’s model of cricket essential with 2024 T20 World Cup in sight
The way in which Rohit Sharma and Co. have been overwhelmed by England within the 2022 T20 World Cup semifinal in Adelaide raised a number of issues about India’s timid strategy to T20 cricket.
Whereas they managed to overtake the squad and get in a brand new captain in Hardik Pandya, the Males in Blue misplaced the sequence 3-2 within the West Indies and that lack of urgency in run-scoring was seen within the Asian Video games quarterfinal as properly.
The T20 World Cup within the West Indies and USA is lower than a yr away and after the 2023 World Cup, the main focus may very well be on establishing a workforce that adheres to the fearless model of cricket wanted.
