  • World Cup Warm-Up Match: Indian bowlers will show their strength against England, Rohit Sharma and company are ready

    ICC world cup 2023 Before Saturday, Team India will face defending champion England in the first practice match in Guwahati. In this match, Indian bowlers will be able to assess their depth, because England’s batting lineup is very strong at the moment. Practice games do not have official status. Both teams can use as many players as they want and see how certain players react in specific match situations. However, no team would want to expose all its players or strategies by putting in full force during these games. Therefore, it would be premature to assess the ability of any team from the practice match. after England Rohit Sharma The team has to play the second practice match against Netherlands on October 3.

    England’s batting lineup is very strong

    Talking about the current World Cup champion England, this team has made huge changes in all formats in the last few years. The team has adopted an aggressive batting style, which has also been seen in Test cricket. The batting line-up of Jonny Bairstow, Jos Buttler, Dawid Malan, Ben Stokes, Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone and Moeen Ali can trouble any bowler. In such a situation, Indian bowlers can test themselves better.

    The onus will be on the spinners

    The entire responsibility will be on the spinners in the middle overs. It will be interesting to see how far Kuldeep Yadav, Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja are able to make a dent in England’s strong batting order. It also remains to be seen whether top players like captain Jos Buttler or the charismatic Ben Stokes will try their hardest to not give the Indian bowlers a chance to dominate them. The best thing about the England team is its batting depth.

    Great performance by bowlers in Asia Cup

    The arrival of Sam Curran at number eight and Chris Woakes, who led the victory against India by scoring a Test century at Lord’s at number nine, certainly tells a lot about the balance of the team. However, be it the Asia Cup or the recently concluded ODI series against Australia. Indian bowlers have performed amazingly. It was no small feat to all out Sri Lanka at the score of 50 in the Asia Cup final in its own home.

    Ishan Kishan vs Shreyas Iyer

    After the injury of Akshar Patel, the need for a left-handed batsman will be felt in the team. In such a situation, Ishan Kishan can be given preference over Shreyas Iyer. There is no doubt that Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill will be the opening pair. In such a situation, Kishan can come to the crease as a left-handed batsman in the middle order. In the presence of Virat Kohli, this will affect Iyer, because another left-handed batsman Ravindra Jadeja will be present in the team in the lower order.

    Senior players can be given rest

    An equation is also being formed that India can give rest to its senior players in the warm-up match. But in a team of 15 players only four players can rest. Even before this, India has fielded playing eleven with two wicket-keeper batsmen, KL Rahul and Kishan. However, head coach Rahul Dravid and captain Rohit Sharma would like to face England with the original team, which will be seen on the field in most of the World Cup matches. Iyer needs more opportunities, which he can get in two practice matches.

    Indian team

    Rohit Sharma (captain), Hardik Pandya (vice-captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Ravichandran Ashwin, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav.

On many occasions, the stars of the Indian cricket team looked disappointed while fielding and while trying to take catches.

    Mohammad Kaif warned

    Former Indian cricket team star Mohammad Kaif has warned the team before the Cricket World Cup. He posted on X, ‘Caution: If India cannot take good catches then it may be out of the World Cup. The match can be won by batting and bowling but catching is also important for victory. Indian players dropped some easy catches and looked uncomfortable at times while fielding. Many times the ball was seen slipping from the hands of the fielders. KL Rahul also missed the runout.

    India is running with two fast bowlers

    Meanwhile, India’s policy of changing its fast bowling options ahead of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 has received support from veteran fast bowler Mohammed Shami. India has adopted a rotation policy for its fast bowlers since the beginning of the Asia Cup. According to this, at any point of time only two players, one Jasprit Bumrah and the other Mohammed Siraj or Mohammed Shami, are included in the playing eleven.

    This also means that medium pacer Shardul Thakur, who is more adept with the bat, has got more opportunities. However, this has helped in improving India’s batting. But this has reduced the opportunities for India’s full-time fast bowlers. Shami participated in only two matches in the Asia Cup. On Friday, he played the first ODI against Australia in Mohali and played a match-winning innings by taking five wickets. India won this match by five wickets.

    India is following rotation policy for fast bowlers

    Despite these returns, considering the rotation policy, Shami’s place in the playing eleven is not confirmed. However, Bengal’s fast bowlers are unperturbed by these developments. Shami supported this policy while speaking at the press conference after India’s win against Australia. He stressed the importance of players understanding their role, whether they are included in the playing eleven or not.

    Shami said this after being out of playing eleven

    According to an ICC release, Shami said that this is a part of the game. It is important to understand the needs of the team. It is not possible that you will always be a part of the playing eleven and team combination. When we play regularly, someone has to sit out. There’s no point in getting frustrated about it. Obviously, it is good if you are in the eleven but it is also important to be sensible when you are on the bench. That role is also very important.
