T20 World Cup 2022: India's Best Playing XI for the tournament

The wait is finally over! India have announced a strong 15-member contingent for the upcoming T20 World Cup in Australia. The squad sees the ace-bowlers Harshal Patel and Bhuvneshwar Kumar back in the mix. The likes of Mohammed Shami, Shreyas Iyer, Ravi Bishnoi and Deepak Chahar are among the standby players picked for the mega event.

All 15 players are proven performers in the T20 circuit. It will be interesting what starting XI Rohit Sharma & Co. decides to go with. Let us look at what India's Best Playing XI can look like for the marquee tournament which is slated to happen in October.

India's Best Playing XI for T20 World Cup 2022:

1. Rohit Sharma (C)

Rohit Sharma is the commander-in-chief of the Indian team and his place on the side is a no-brainer. The 35-year-old is the highest run-getter in T20I cricket and has been a match-winner for the Men in Blue for a long time.

Rohit has been instrumental in India’s change of batting ideology in T20I cricket. Under his reign, the Men in Blue adopted a fearless batting approach and the veteran batter has walked the talk with his aggressive batting. He has given India brisk starts and laid the foundation for others to follow.

The Indian skipper is one of the sharpest minds in the T20 circuit. This is evident from the fact that he is the most successful captain in the Indian Premier League. Rohit is known to marshall his troops well and his captaincy prowess will be key in India’s World Cup campaign.
