“As we all know, India has a very powerful T20 league as well. I believe it is the capacity to come together and play the style and brand of cricket that best suits your players. I think it was the big trick that India missed in the last T20 World Cup since it took them around two games “said Scott Styris on Sports18’s daily broadcast ‘Sports Over The Top.’

The continental T20 tournament will be held in the United Arab Emirates from August 27 to September 11. Rohit Sharma will captain a 15-man Indian team, with KL Rahul serving as his deputy.
