Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

I don’t see any discussion here at least on the last 3 pages of this thread so I’ll begin do you’ll think the Indian management has taken a step back by bringing Kohli and Rohit in to the T20 squad because this was an excellent time to test youngsters before the upcoming T20 World Cup. Furthermore I also wonder if they both underperform in IPL will they really be dropped or they’ll be selected citing experience is needed?

I disagree. Rohit and Virat are class performers and it's best to stick to the big guns in such big ICC tournaments. T20 World Cup 2024 is just a couple of months away which is why their selection makes complete sense.

If it was many months away, I would have agreed with you. They just need more luck to go their way in the finals of these big ICC events.

Since the World Cup we have noticed the presence of most of the new players in the India team due to which a question remains in our mind whether Rohit Sharma or Virat Kohli will be selected for the upcoming T20 World Cup. There is no room to think that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are going to play the next T20 World Cup. Virat Kohli was the highest run-scorer in the 2023 World Cup and he has said that he wants to score the highest runs in the T20 World Cup as well. Maybe young cricketers can bat better aggressively than Virat Kohli or Rohit Sharma but Rohit Sharma or Virat Kohli can bring out a match like other young players can't bring out that match. Experience is always valued and experience performance is what Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are going to play in the upcoming World Cup.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have performed well in World Cup 2023. Like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma may not score a century in every match, but he has started the opening with great power due to which the subsequent batsmen have been able to play well. So it is expected that we will definitely see the game of these two experienced batsmen in T20 World Cup. After the World Cup ended some of the experienced players were rested so the Indian team gave chance to the newcomers but the newcomers performed very well. Especially in the T20 series against Australia under the leadership of Surya Kumar Yadav we saw India perform very well. Surya Kumar Yadav won the T20 series against Australia. India will undoubtedly do well in T20 World Cup because India has some great players who are good batsmen and good bowlers.

Although Virat Kohli has batted slowly in this World Cup, Rohit Sharma has not batted slowly but in the first power play he has batted devastatingly and got out after scoring the runs needed for the team. In this World Cup we got to see a new technique from Rohit Sharma. The 2023 World Cup was played on all the wickets that were easy to bat on in the early stages, so Rohit Sharma was more focused on scoring the required runs for the team than on his own century, rather than on his own big innings. Virat Kohli has built an innings beautifully and he has taken that innings to a century. BCCI knows how important Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are to the Indian team and how much they contribute.
