New Delhi: Former India fast bowler and Gujarat head coach Ashish Nehra, who led Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans to the IPL title in their debut season, has selected his team India for the T20 world. Surprising everyone, he has given a place in the team to Ravindra Jadeja, who is suffering from a knee injury. Apart from this, there is no other shocking name in his team. He appeared with the same team that has been playing T20 cricket for India for some time now.
Suryakumar Yadav will be the most important player of the team
In a special program related to ICC’s T20 World Cup, Nehra said that there is very little chance of any major change in the team that went to play for the Asia Cup. Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul will be the openers in Ashish Nehra’s team. Suryakumar Yadav will be an important part of the team. Even if he bats at any number. He is the only player who has got the chance at whatever number he has got the chance. He has proved himself. And has the power to bat in any conditions.

His choices as spinners are Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal. Ravindra Jadeja and Hardik Pandya will be in the team as all-rounders. On the other hand, Dinesh Karthik and Rishabh Pant have been successful in securing a place in Nehra’s team as wicketkeepers.
