The opener scored 133 runs in the 4 matches of the Asia Cup for India. With over 400 runs in T20Is, this year so far including two fifties, the 35-year-old is seemingly in good form currently.
2. KL Rahul
KL Rahul will be the most possible option for India to open the batting alongside Rohit Sharma. The right-hander has proved his worth while batting at the top of the order for several years in the past.
The 28-year-old with his great big-hitting skills and high scores has been invaluable to the side. In the 5 games for India in the Asia Cup in 2022, he's scored 132 runs with a strike rate of 122.2. He will be an important addition to the side in the T20 World Cup 2022.

The batsman showed amazing form as he scored 276 runs in the recent Asia Cup at a magically high average and strike rate. With 357 runs in 9 T20Is so far this year, Kohli will be a dangerous player in India's XI during the World T20.
4. Suryakumar Yadav
Suryakumar Yadav will be the most suitable no.4 batsman for India in the T20 World Cup. His massive T20I strike rate and variety of range of shots speak loads about his qualities as a top-order batsman.
With 567 runs at a strike rate of more than 180 in 17 T20Is so far this year, the right-hander has been in magnificent form with the bat and thus fits in perfectly within India's Playing XI.
5. Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya will be the first-choice all-rounder for his team in the T20 World Cup. His fine all-round performance in the recent past has been of great use to the side. The 29-year-old has 331 runs with the bat and 12 wickets with the ball in 16 T20Is so far. Thus he will certainly be a crucial player in the XI.
6. Dinesh Karthik

The man who made his comeback into the side after a long time only in 2022 has scored 193 runs in 14 T20I innings at a strike rate of 133. He will be a major part of the team's plans during the World T20 for sure.

The right-arm pacer who made his debut last year has picked 19 wickets in 15 T20Is so far this year. He thus will be an important part of India's playing XI too.
8. Ravichandran Ashwin
Ravindra Jadeja's being excluded from the squad owing to an injury which he sustained during the Asia Cup means Ravichandran Ashwin is now going to be India's first option amongst the spinners during the World T20.
Despite lack of chances, the 35-year-old has picked 5 wickets in 5 T20Is so far in 2022. He will be a major part of India's bowling department during the World T20.
9. Bhuvneshwar Kumar

With 31 wickets in 22 T20Is so far this year, he has been a highly useful bowler with his wicket-taking ability in particular. He will be a major part of India's plans ahead of the World T20 for sure.
10. Jasprit Bumrah
Jasprit Bumrah without a doubt will be India's most formidable bowler in the T20 World Cup 2022. The man who was out with an injury during the Asia Cup will be back on the team after having regained full fitness.
Despite picking just 3 wickets in 3 games so far in 2022, he will be an important part of the team ahead of the big tournament hereon.
11. Arshdeep Singh
