Former Indian players Aakash Chopra and Irfan Pathan had a discussion about the Indian squad for the ICC T20I World Cup 2022. During this discussion, both the commentators named 3 Indian players who have already their places intact in the squad for the ICC tournament.
ICC T20I World Cup 2022 will take place later this year in Australia and will commence in October. ICC has also announced the groups and schedule for the tournament. Last year, India faced a humiliating first-round exit in T20I World Cup 2021, in which Australia emerged champions by winning their first-ever title.
During the pre-match show of India vs Sri Lanka 3rd T20I at Star Sports, Akash Chopra and Irfan Pathan talked about Indian players who will be part of the squad in ICC T20I World Cup 2022. Aakash Chopra thinks that Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, and Rishabh Pant are all certain to be part of the Indian squad.
“Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, and Rishabh Pant are all certain in the 15 (15-member squad for the World Cup). They also give you an option to open with Virat Kohli and play Rahul in the middle-order.
“Rahul can also be your second wicketkeeping option. You need a left-hander in the middle-order and Rishabh Pant fills that space”, Chopra said.
