IND vs AFG: Team India has rocked the T20 World Cup 2024. India made it to the Super 8 by winning 3 consecutive matches in the group stage. Team India defeated Ireland, Pakistan and America while the match with Canada was canceled due to rain. Now India will play the Super 8 match and its first match will be against the Afghanistan team. In such a situation, let us understand what could be India's playing 11 in this match?
Actually, if we talk about Team India's playing 11 in India vs Afghanistan (IND vs AFG), then it seems that captain Rohit Sharma can show the way out to some players. The names of two of them seem to be confirmed and they can be none other than Ravindra Jadeja and Shivam Dubey, who have flopped in the 3 matches played so far.
Dubey has been able to score only 34 runs in three matches while he has not got a single wicket while bowling. On the other hand, if we talk about Jadeja, he has neither been able to take a wicket nor score runs in this tournament so far. He did not bat against Ireland-America and Jadeja was out on 0 runs against Pakistan. Also, he has not been able to get a single wicket in bowling as well.
It is worth noting that if Jadeja and Dubey are out of the India and Afghanistan (IND vs AFG) match, then two promising players will enter. These two players will be none other than Sanju Samson and Kuldeep Yadav. Both of them have not played a match in the league stage so far. In such a situation, both of them can get a chance.
Kuldeep Yadav may get a chance in place of Jadeja because spin bowlers get help in Barbados. At the same time, Sanju will replace Dubey. Sanju and Kuldeep also performed well in IPL 2024. While Sanju scored 531 runs in 15 matches in IPL 2024, Kuldeep took 16 wickets in 11 matches.
Let us tell you that Kohli-Rohit can start the innings in the India and Afghanistan (IND vs AFG) match. Rishabh Pant will be at number 3 while Sanju can be given a chance at number 4. At the same time, Hardik Pandya can be at number 5. Akshar Patel can be brought at number 6, Kuldeep Yadav at number 7, Yuzvendra Chahal at number 8. At the same time, Bumrah and Arshdeep can also be a part of the playing 11.
