New Delhi: India is moving towards their first clash of T20 World Cup which is set to happen against Pakistan. Ahead of the clash, Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid will have an important decision to make and that is to select playing XI. 

Making things a little easier for Dravid, former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh had chosen his playing XI for clash against Pakistan.

While announcing his playing XI, Harbhajan Singh said, “I feel the team is straightforward. I feel Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik and Axar Patel will be in the team. Yuzi Chahal will play along with them. After that Arshdeep Singh, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mohammad Shami.”

“This is my choice. Harshal Patel might not get a chance. I feel Deepak Hooda and R Ashwin will not get a chance in the first few games. I am seeing this as the starting XI,” he added.

While making a selection of the bowlers, legendary cricketer said, “Shami getting fit is a good sign for the Indian team. The style of bowler he is, experience matters a lot on the big stage. Shami’s role becomes even bigger with Bumrah not being there. We hope that he lives up to those expectations.”

I don’t think R Ashwin will get a chance because the batting looks slightly long with Axar Patel’s presence. If Axar Patel doesn’t play, you cannot depend so much on R Ashwin’s batting in T20Is, he is good in the longest format,” he added.
