Predicting India's 15-man squad for the T20 World Cup 2020
Going largely by current form and the present squad, here we try to predict India’s 15 for the T20 World Cup to be played in Australia next year.
9. Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya ended India’s eternal search for a fast-bowling all-rounder. India had been looking for someone who can give in a number of overs and also be effective with the bat. The younger Pandya fit the bill perfectly and has become India’s go-to all-rounder in the last few years.
He has been one of India’s key players, especially in white-ball cricket and he has contributed immensely to the balance of the side. If you look at the Baroda all-rounder’s numbers in T20Is, they don’t really show you enough. He generally bats down the order and more often than not has to go hell for leather from ball one. Hence, his average isn’t promising.
However, Pandya’s ability to strike big and change the momentum with the bat and also, his knack of picking up wickets is key for the ‘Men in Blue’. Hence, there is no doubt that Pandya will be on that plane to Australia as one of the key players.
