Best India Playing 11 for T20 World Cup 2024

Rohit Sharma (C)

Rohit Sharma is the skipper of Team India and should open the innings for the side in every game. Sharma failed to lead Team India in ODI World Cup last year but will aim for another attempt in West Indies.

Yashasvi Jaiswal

Yashasvi Jaiswal should be the other opener as he showed marvelous form by smacking a century in a recent IPL match. Jaiswal has been a powerful hitter in the T20I format and also showed a wonderful form in all T20I series he played.

Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli has showcased a marvellous form in IPL 2024. There is no other batter who is the perfect choice at no.3 for India than Kohli in ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Kohli has led the charts of top run-getters in IPL and will be the most crucial batter for the Team India.

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav can play in the middle-order as he has given a glimpse of his might with the bat in some games of IPL 2024. Yadav has already slammed 4 tons in the shortest format and will be a dangerous batter for Team India.

Rishabh Pant (WK)

Rishabh Pant should be the wicketkeeper for the team in the T20 World Cup 2024 as he has shown good form after his return in IPL 2024. Pant can also play in the middle. He is a left-handed batsman and has more experience than Sanju Samson. Moreover, the latter usually plays in the top order.

Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya should be picked as a pace all-rounder as Team India will need more pacers on seam-friendly and flat pitches in the Carribean. He is also the vice-captain of the team. Although Shivam Dube has shown wonderful form in IPL 2024, Pandya has a lot of experience in international tournaments.

Ravindra Jadeja

Ravindra Jadeja will be a valuable addition to the playing 11 with his ability to bowl left-arm spin and smash big shots in the lower order. Jadeja is a crucial member of the team across all three formats and has shown impressive form in IPL 2024.

Yuzvendra Chahal

Yuzvendra Chahal has shown brilliant form in IPL 2024 and should be part of the team in the T20 World Cup 2024 as the team will need a right-arm spinner. He is a wicket-taking bowler who can clinch crucial wickets when the team needs it the most.

Arshdeep Singh

Arshdeep Singh has been an amazing performer for the side for the last two years in the shortest format and will be a key addition being a left-armer. The left-arm pacer has impressed with his consistent show in T20Is.

Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah has been in fabulous form after his comeback to the national team post-injury. He impressed in the India vs England Test series as well as IPL 2024. Bumrah will lead the pace attack for the team.

Mohammed Siraj

Mohammed Siraj should be the other pacer for Team India in T20 World Cup 2024 as he will be a lethal pacer on overseas pitches. Siraj can attack the opposition teams with his fierce bounce on Carribean pitches.
