Hardik Pandya can be picked for T20 World Cup 2022:
Hardik Pandya has to deal with his injuries and pain and has to start bowling. After being chosen as a leader for the Gujarat Titans, Hardik has a lot of responsibility on his shoulders. Hardik Pandya is one of the biggest match-winners in the country. He hits the spin bowlers like no other batsmen. He hits the ball a long mile.
Shreyas Iyer
Shreyas Iyer has been blooming since 2018. It is a real pity that he was not picked for ICC T20 World Cup 2021. Shreyas can bat from number 3 to number 6 at any position. His flexibility makes his case stronger. There is not a cleaner striker of the spinners other than Shreyas Iyer. Taking the leadership role at KKR will help him grow as a person. He will also be an integral part of the leadership group in absence of senior members.
Yuzvendra Chahal:
Yuzi is the most successful Indian T20I bowler. He has picked the most wickets in T20Is for India. He is a very attacking option. Chahal in an interview said, “I feel even if the batsman hits me, he will hit me for 6 sixes but if I don’t attack him if I don’t fight, I miss my chance of picking his wicket.” With this mentality, he is bound to excel. Yuzi has a knack for taking wickets. It was very unfortunate that he wasn’t picked in the 2021 T20 World Cup.
Ravi Bishnoi:
Ravi Bishnoi has made a strong case for himself after excelling in the recently concluded West Indies series. Bishnoi has set his sight on the flight to Australia. He is a similar bowler to Yuzi Chahal but his round-arm action is faster. The batters find it difficult to pick the wrong-un bowled by him. His performance in his debut game speaks volumes of his potential. He is the only Indian to get capped without playing a List A Game.
Rahul Chaha:
Rahul Chahar, the tall leg-spinner has to make a comeback to the international circuit. On the Australian pitches that give bounce, a tall leg-spinner can make a difference. He also bowls a bit quicker. Chahar has to perform well in Tata IPL 2022 to make a comeback. He was an integral part of the T20 World Cup 2021 campaign but ever since has been sidelined.
