India vs Ireland Live Updates,T20 World Cup 2024: Team India start its T20 World Cup campaign with a match against Ireland at New York on Wednesday. The game will also see India beginning their quest for a major ICC trophy, once again.
As India edge closer to the start of their T20 World Cup 2024 campaign, former cricketers and experts are contemplating what playing XI should the team opt for. With no 'Impact Player' rule like the Indian Premier League, the management has to be extra careful with regards to the team balance. Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan, hence, feels there should be more bowling options in the playing XI as the trio of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav doesn't bowl, making the team handicapped.
Suryakumar Yadav is looking leaner and fitter than ever since his comeback to competitive cricket and much of it could be attributed to a regimented diet plan along with rigorous strength training to cut at least 12-14 kg he had gained after sports hernia surgery. World's No. 1 T20 batter Suryakumar was out of competitive cricket for close to four months after undergoing an ankle operation in December last year, followed by a sports hernia surgery. For an elite sportsperson, coming back to peak fitness is always a challenge and a strict diet plan is foundation to that.
India vs Bangladesh, T20 World Cup Warm-Up Live Streaming: India will be squaring off against Bangladesh in their one and only warm-up game of the T20 World Cup 2024 on Saturday in New York. This will be India's first T20I game since January, when they took on Afghanistan. Star India batter Virat Kohli joined the squad on Friday but may miss the warm-up match. Team India will aim to test its squad before stepping into the marquee event. On the other hand, Bangladesh eye redemption after the shocking defeat against USA in the T20I series. (LIVE SCORECARD)
There will be the usual favourites, the mavericks, the chokers and also the unpredictable minnows -- the script is familiar for a World Cup but the scale would be unprecedented when the T20 showpiece, featuring a record 20 teams, spearheads cricket's audacious charge into the American market starting in New York on Saturday. While India would be eager to shed the baggage of near-misses, Australia would like to add another chapter to their tale of domination. For the likes of Pakistan and West Indies, the primary target would be to keep in check their tendency to implode at the most inopportune time.
Suryakumar Yadav trolled fellow Indian cricket team star Yashasvi Jaiswal with skipper Rohit Sharma's famous "Garden mein ghoomega" dialogue on social media. Jaiswal posted a picture of himself exploring the streets of New York ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024. Suryakumar was quick to comment on the picture as he wrote - "Sambhaal ke. Garden me ghoomega tho pata hai na (Be careful. You know what will happen if you roam in the garden".
Hardik Pandya's troubles just don't seem to be ending. The India all-rounder had a torrid Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season where he was constantly abused and booed for replacing Rohit Sharma as the Mumbai Indians captain. Hardik's performances with the bat and the ball on the field also left much to desire. As the veteran cricketer now prepares for the T20 World Cup 2024 campaign, he couldn't be spotted among the first batch of players that left for the campaign in the USA and West Indies.
The first batch of Indian cricketers, including skipper Rohit Sharma, on Saturday departed for United States ahead of the T20 World Cup beginning on June 2. Apart from Rohit, pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, top-ranked T20I batter Suryakumar Yadav, head coach Rahul Dravid and batting coach Vikram Rathour and few other players left from Mumbai airport. Other players in the travelling contingent include Ravindra Jadeja, Shivam Dube, Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh, Khaleel Ahmed, Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel among others.
