Haag said that for me if you want to keep Virat Kohli in the team. Then he should open the innings with Rohit Sharma. I want Shreyas Iyer to bat at number three while Rishabh Pant at number four. Take KL Rahul there at some point and if Hardik Pandya is there then he can be sent to bat at No.6. While Ravindra Jadeja can be sent to bat at No.7. He said that Suryakumar Yadav can be there to bat at number five. While if Hardik is not fit then Venkatesh Iyer can be kept at number six. At the same time, he gave the responsibility of attacking the team as fast bowlers to Bumrah, Shami. And Siraj while saying that the lead spinner should be Yuzvendra Chahal.
