Strengths of the Indian T20 World Cup team in 2022

Throughout the Indian cricket team’s history, its batting has always been regarded as its greatest strength. It’s top 3 are the engine that drives it forward. When KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, and Virat Kohli are on their game, they can hit the ball a long way and can win you a game all by themselves. There is also a big advantage to having players like Hardik Pandya and Deepak Hooda on the team.

The Australian pitches are exactly what these players are looking for when it comes to taking the ball onto the bat, and this is exactly what the pitches offer to these players. There is also a great deal of strength in death bowling with Harshal Patel, Bumrah, and Arshdeep in the team.

Weaknesses of the Indian T20 World Cup team in 2022

There will be another spin option that needs to be included in the first 11 for the team. While Deepak Hooda and Yuzvendra Chahal are excellent bowlers, is this the kind of attack you want to use with your spin bowlers? Ravindra Jadeja is going to be a key player for the team, so his absence is going to be a concern. The combination needs to be changed in order to bring in Axar Patel.

ICC T20 World Cup 2022: Opportunities for the Indian Team

The opportunities are many and there are a lot of them. Despite being backed by the IPL for an extended period of time, Rishabh Pant has been given an opportunity in the T20 format to prove his worth. There is no left-handed player in the top 4 of the lineup which works to his advantage. There are a couple of new names on the global stage this year in Harshal Patel and Deepak Hooda.

These guys will be eager to show what they are capable of to the world. As part of the leadership group, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma both have won a World Cup and Champions Trophy each, and both will now be looking forward to winning a cup together when they are both a part of the team.

Indian Team Threats

The biggest threat to the Indian team is the frequent injuries that the players are suffering from. In spite of the fact that the BCCI manages workload very effectively, there is still a high chance of injury to the players. Both Harshal Patel and Bumrah, who happen to be the two top bowlers in the T20 format, have undergone rehabilitation in the recent past since both of them took part in the T20 format. The other threat is that of “Too many cooks spoil the broth.” This is because there are simply too many high-profile players in this game.
