Only 36 days left. After that, the biggest T20 World Cup in history will begin. How will India’s squad be in this World Cup to be held in the United States and West Indies, the discussion has been going on for several months. Who will be in the squad, whether Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will be played, etc., various interesting questions are circulating in the Indian cricket community.
In the ongoing IPL, Mumbai Indians star Rohit has been criticized but negative comments are being made about Kohli’s strike. Despite getting runs for Royal Challengers, his strike rate is low. Many people think that to play in the World Cup, Kohli should increase his strike rate, otherwise it is better not to go to the World Cup with the team. In this case retirement can be an option.
However, former cricketer Yuvraj Singh has explained why Kohli and Rohit are needed in the World Cup.
In an ICC interview, Yuvraj asserted that Kohli and Rohit have the right to retire only when they feel the time has come. Because they have contributed a lot to the team for many years.
Yuvraj personally feels that they should retire from T20 cricket after the World Cup. At the same time, Yuvraj asked them to focus on other formats of the game.
Yuvraj said, ‘As you get older people start talking about your age and they forget about your form. They are great players for India and they have the ability to retire whenever they want (to retire).”
He also said, ‘I want to see more young players in the T20 format. Because, it reduces the pressure on them (experienced players) playing 50 overs (ODIs) and Tests. After this (T20) World Cup, a lot of youngsters will come into the team, I want to see that. The next T20 World Cup team will be made with them.
