NEW DELHI: As the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup begins, India captain Rohit Sharma has not yet finalized the team's playing XI, even after their dominant win in the warm-up match against Bangladesh. One clear indicator from Saturday's fixture is that Yashasvi Jaiswal will likely not feature in the lineup for the campaign opener against Ireland on June 5 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium.
Despite discussions about the need for a left-right combination at the top of the batting order, Jaiswal was overlooked in favor of Sanju Samson. This decision indicates that Virat Kohli, who missed the warm-up match due to a late arrival in New York, will open the batting with Rohit Sharma.
