It’s time to make amends for previous mistakes if the squad is to win

Overview

It was a single poor performance that jeopardized his Quest for Glory 2017 Campaign trophy. In essence, Bumrah with an overstep of his foot at the Oval meant Zaman would not be out for 3. In Bizarre reality, Zaman would go on to score a century in the finals and the rest is supposedly history. In the same way, Dhoni was ran out for a second run at Old trefford, where New Zeland murdered Indian dreams. The same was the case in Ahmedabad in 2023 where one poor Batting performance diminished an almost immaculate tournament. One could argue that they did not win it in 2023, but unlike the rest of the teams, India was a country apart, just like in 2017 and 2019, where they were the most dominant nation in global cricket.

Currently, the One-Day international is happening and once again, India is a top contender. India has won 17 out of 20 One Day games since the 2017 Cricket Trophy finals, making them one of the most successful teams in that timeframe. They are set to play the most important game on the 23rd of March, and the rest of the world and Pakistan will be paying close attention. However, Rohit Sharma is focused on the ninth of March. It is time to move on from the past and seek redemption for previous defeats.

Form guide: W, W, W, L, L (last five ODIs)

India hasn’t featured in too many one dayers since their campaign in the 2023 World Cup. Nevertheless, that is a format that their premier have thrived in the most. After losing the series in Sri Lanka, they returned the favor to England by cleaning the series at home. Other than this, there’s not much that can be said.

Squad: Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Harshit Rana, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh, Ravindra Jadeja, Varun Chakaravarthy.

Moreover, there are five spinners, which some might argue is illogical. However, Rohit Sharma does have a unique talent for selecting the right staff during international tournaments.

Group Stage Schedule:

February 20: vs Bangladesh, Dubai

February 23: vs Pakistan, Dubai

March 2: vs New Zealand, Dubai

That India is able to play all their matches at a single venue presents some benefits. The Dubai International Cricket Stadium (DICS), however, has not been a particularly promising ground for the Indian teams lately – they failed to make it to the semifinals in the last T20 World Cup of 2021, and sadly, the Indian women’s team did not perform well in last year’s T20 World Cup either. Alongside, some nostalgia is still present, like the Asia Cup victory in 2018. But as usual, Rohit Sharma was the captain back then too. For more latest update, Click 1xbetfair
