Former India National Cricket Team left-arm pacer Ashish Nehra has said that the India National Cricket Team will have to figure out the combination that they want to settle in for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022.

The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022, which is the eighth edition of the multi-nation tournament, is scheduled to be played from October 16 to November 13 in Australia and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has already named India’s squad for the marquee tournament.

Speaking on Cricbuzz, Nehra, who is the head coach of the Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League (IPL), said:

“Close to the World Cup, it’s not only about results. The team will have to figure out what they want. India are playing three spinners at home, something that most teams would not be doing in Australia.”

The pace-bowling unit of the India National Cricket Team came under the scanner after a poor performance in the Asia Cup 2022. Meanwhile, Ashish Nehra wants the team management to focus on the fast-bowling department.

“There are 5 bowlers in the squad, so you are looking at the bowling side, because you are not sure. The captain, coach and the team management are looking at the fast bowling unit,” he said.

The team will need to improve overall, not only in the bowling side of things – Ashish Nehra

Nehra further said that the India National Cricket Team will also have to make improvements in the batting department and mentioned that they chased down 148 runs in the group stage game against Pakistan National Cricket Team with difficulty.

“India chased down 147 against Pakistan with difficulty. The team will need to improve overall, not only in the bowling side of things. There are a lot of questions on the combination of the batting order and one can hope that by the time you go into the World Cup, you are clear more or less about what you want,” the former cricketer concluded.
