The former Indian cricketer Ajay Jadeja has come up with a unique suggestion for the Indian skipper Rohit Sharma in regard to the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024 which is going to be played in June in USA and West Indies.
On Tuesday, the BCCI announced the Indian squad for the WC2024 and other than Rinku Singh’s exclusion, everything else was on the expected lines.
Many former cricketers are of the opinion that Virat Kohli should open the Indian innings with Rohit Sharma who has been opening the Indian innings for quite a few years now but Ajay Jadeja feels that it will be better to make Virat Kohli open with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma should come at number 3.
During a discussion, Jadeja said, “For me, Virat Kohli opens. Who goes back? Rohit Sharma bats at three. He gets a little cushion and gets to understand the game, he has so much going on, in his mind as a captain.”
He explains further, “If you have Virat in your side, you know consistency is the one thing you will get, so, might as well use him. He’s best at the top and the powerplay allows him to settle in.”
Do you agree with Ajay Jadeja?
