New Delhi: Team India will be concentrating more on one-day internationals in 2023 as it prepares them for the 50-over World Cup, they’ll be later this year. The Men in Blue began the year with consecutive clean sweep ODI series victories over Sri Lanka and New Zealand.
The senior players consistently getting runs is currently the team’s biggest advantage. Recently, both Virat and Rohit have scored centuries, and the younger players are also scoring a lot of runs.
The Indian team is unquestionably the tournament’s overwhelming favorite based on the most recent results. In the meantime, Sourav Ganguly has offered important guidance to the team management. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma and head coach Rahul Dravid have been asked to stick with the same group of players who have been performing well recently by the former chief of the BBCI.
“India can never be a weak team. A country that has so much talent can never be a weak team. Half of the players don’t even get a chance. I would want Rahul Dravid, Rohit Sharma and the selectors to hold on to the same team till the World Cup,” Ganguly said in an interview with Sports Tak.
“When they reach the World Cup, they should play without any baggage. They should play fearless cricket, it doesn’t matter if they win the trophy or not. The team which has Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami… Ravindra Jadeja will come back… can never be bad,” he added.
