India has been the more successful team in the ICC tournaments until the previous ICC T20 world cup. Pakistan beat India with ease by winning by 10 wickets which was the first time Pakistan beat India in any ICC T20 World Cup tournament. The Pakistan cricket team have been a threat in this format of the game from the very onset.

The Indian team, on the other hand, need to get their hand on an ICC trophy. The last ICC trophy that India won was the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup in 2011. Since then, it has been a series of disappointments for the Indian Cricket Team.

Team India Squad for T20 World Cup 2022

Prior to the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup, the Indian team faced a lot of criticism over not giving the younger players a chance to prove themselves. The squad that has gone to Australia consists of Rohit Sharma (captain), Lokesh Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Rishabh Pant, Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh, Harshal Patel, Deepak Hooda, Mohammed Shami.

The Indian Coach, Rahul Dravid, said that his coaching staff and the management feel secure and satisfied with the squad that they have come up with. Dravid added, saying that the squad is a mix of experienced and young guns. The likes of Rohit, Kohli, KL Rahul and Ravi Ashwin will be a great help in terms of mentoring the younger players. Definitely, the biggest loss for the team is the absence of Jasprit Bumrah. He is the main man in the bowling attack for Team India.
