IND vs WI: Kris Srikkanth's Epic 'Ae Chetan Ab Correct Team Select Karna' Remark On India's T20 WC Squad Discussion With Ravi Shastri

In addition to the Asia Cup, India still has 10 T20I matches to play before they can decide on their final 15 players for the 2022 T20 World Cup. The debate over Men in Blue’s potential team for the major tournament in October in Australia is becoming more intense with each passing game, with every expert and seasoned player voicing their view.

During the opening T20I encounter against the West Indies, former teammates Kris Srikkanth and Ravi Shastri were having a conversation about the same, and the former India skipper came up with an epic Chetan Sharma response. 

India is currently testing the waters in Twenty20 cricket, looking at starters and backups for every position in the 15-man World Cup roster. The Men in Blue have been under pressure after their disappointing and devastating group-stage loss in the 2021 T20 World Cup, which they had entered as heavy favourites to win. 

Kris Srikkanth Asks Chetan Sharma To Pick The Correct Team For World Cup

Speaking on the air during Fan Code’s broadcast of the first Twenty20 International between India and the West Indies, Kris Srikkanth made a memorable remark about current chief selector Chetan Sharma, his former teammate, asking him to pick the right team for the World Cup this time and adding that he can call him at any time for advice. 

Advice chaiye toh mereko phone kardo, Ravi (Shastri) ko call kardo, humdono aacha guidance denge aapko” (Hey Chetam, select the correct team this time. If you need any advice, call me, call Ravi. Both of us can give you good guidance) he said. 

From Asia Cup, India Have To Choose Their Team For T20 World Cup: Kris Srikkanth

The former India top selector supported the current experimental procedure but thinks India would have to choose their team for the T20 World Cup when Asia Cup begins later next month. 

“This trial and error methodology that they are doing is absolutely fine, what the selectors are doing is fine. But from the Asia Cup, they have to do it,” he said.
