As the T20 World Cup series is going to be held in Australia next month, all the teams are currently strengthening their squads by properly classifying the players in their squad. In that way, the Indian team, which faced bad defeats during the last year’s T20 World Cup held in the United Arab Emirates, is now going to play the upcoming T20 World Cup series under the leadership of Rohit Sharma this year.
Although the Indian team led by Rohit Sharma has performed well in the various series that have been held so far, the Indian team’s exit from the ongoing Asia Cup series in the United Arab Emirates has caused great sadness among the fans. Along with this, there is a lot of criticism that the Indian team is not fully set yet.

Especially in the field of bowling, many people are expressing their opinions that it was wrong to approach the Asia Cup series with only three players namely Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan and Arshdeep Singh and it is necessary to include the right bowlers in the Indian team. In this case, the former player of the Indian team, Sehwag Mohammed Shami, has criticized the Indian administration saying it was wrong to sideline him from the T20 matches. He said about this:
It was a big mistake for the Indian team to go into the Asia Cup series with only three players – Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Avesh Khan and Arshdeep Singh. Because when players like Harshal Patel and Bumrah were out of the squad due to injuries, they should have opted for the veteran Mohammed Shami. I do not deny that young players are essential for the Indian team.

But at the same time experienced players are also needed in the upcoming T20 World Cup. In that way, Shami is definitely an indispensable player for the Indian team in the T20 World Cup. An experienced player, he will be a bowler who will lend a helping hand to the team. According to me, it was a wrong decision by the Indian team to sideline Shami from T20 cricket. A similar thing happened to Ashwin two years ago.

Following that, Shami has now been sidelined. But this is not the right result for the Indian team. According to me, it is noteworthy that Sehwag said that his opinion is that a player with good experience in international cricket like Shami should be made to play in the World Cup team.
