Indian cricket team:A series of three T20 matches will be played between India and Afghanistan. In fact, this is Team India's last T20 series before the T20 World Cup. Although Indian players will definitely play in the IPL before the World Cup, they will not get a chance to play a series with any team. However, in this context, the India-Afghanistan series is very important. The Indian team in particular is hoping for a start. Team India captain Rohit Sharma needs an opening partner.
Who will open with Rohit Sharma?
The biggest question ahead of the T20 World Cup is who will open with Rohit Sharma. In fact, five batsmen, including Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill, have been tried to partner Rohit Sharma in the last 14 months, but that search does not seem to be over yet. Ahead of the World Cup, finding the perfect opening partner for Rohit Sharma has turned out to be a major challenge for the team management.
These batsmen were tried out as openers but…
Since the last T20 World Cup, Rishabh Pant, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ishan Kishan have been tried as Rohit Sharma's opening partners but that search has not been completed yet. Apart from this, KL Rahul and Sanju Samson were tried as openers but could not live up to the trust. Rohit Sharma opened the innings with KL Rahul scoring a maximum of 15 times. Rohit Sharma opened with Ishan Kishan five times. Rishabh Pant, on the other hand, featured three times as an opener alongside Rohit Sharma. Suryakumar Yadav partnered Rohit Sharma in two matches. Sanju Samson also had the chance to open. However, it will be interesting to see which batsman will be used as an opener along with Rohit Sharma in the T20 World Cup.
