Parthiv Patel, a former cricketer for India, believes that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s selection means they will play in the T20 World Cup and does not view the three-match T20I series against Afghanistan as a World Cup selection series. After more than a year away from T20 cricket, Rohit and Virat returned to the league. After recording two ducks in the opening two games of the series, Rohit has yet to score a run. However, Kohli missed the first game and made a comeback in the second, scoring 29 runs off of 16 deliveries.
“In my opinion, this series is not serving as a World Cup selection process. Whether a player plays or not won’t affect their chances of being selected for the World Cup, especially if you’re talking about Virat Kohli or Rohit Sharma. They are aiming for the World Cup if they are selected for the series. In his own words, Rohit Sharma wants to score runs. Partiv stated, citing JioCinema, “He likes to set the tone and if he gets in, he would like to make it a big one.” India won both matches by taking six wickets after successfully chasing down the targets. Former Former cricketer Saba Karim feels that India should once again look to chase down the target and test their batting depth in the final T20I should they get an opportunity.
“I hope Bengaluru implements that. In addition to scrutinizing the bowlers, make sure your batting is deep enough. Players further down the line, including Washington Sundar and Axar Patel, might be given a chance. After Hardik Pandya enters the game, you can decide whether to play three seamers or spinners in the playing XI,” Karim stated. India has already taken an unbeatable 2-0 lead over Afghanistan, sealing the series. On Wednesday, the two teams will play in Bengaluru’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium.
