Karim gives suggestion to Team India

In the team of Australia, leg-spinner Mitchell Swepson has been replaced by finisher Tim David from the team that won the 2021 T20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates. 

Australian pitches do not require much spin bowling options. Karim further said, ‘You need some power hitters in the big field, so they keep players from these formats in the side, where they have Tim David and Glenn Maxwell.’

Australia – Favorites to win World Cup 

With the final scheduled for the Melbourne Cricket Ground on 13 November, the Aaron Finch-led side has the support of several members, including Karim, to defend their title. Karim was quoted by Sports 18’s show Sports Over the Top as saying, ‘I think they are a team with a strong side. There are many players in the team who contribute to the best batting, bowling and fielding.
