India's Best Playing XI in T20 World Cup 2022: The 15-man squad for India which is going to feature in the upcoming World T20 in Australia has recently been declared by the BCCI. The men in blue are coming off after a disappointing performance in the Asia Cup shortly.



Read this - <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/india-icc-t20-world-cup-2022-squad-team-announced-jasprit-bumrah-returns/" data-type="post" data-id="94170">India ICC T20 World Cup 2022 Squad, Team Announced, Jasprit Bumrah returns</a>.



Team India is very well aware of the fact that the other teams will also be eager to make a mark in the tournament next month onwards. Hence it's quite important for the team to build its best possible combinations of players who shall be able to help the side achieve its objectives on the big stage.&nbsp;



The squad has several quality players in all departments and it's necessary for the players to be put in proper order in the playing XI to prepare a strong side of 11 players. It's time for us to have a look at the best possible Playing XI for India in the World T20 2022.?Check these 11 pages for the 11 best Playing XI:







<h2>1. Rohit Sharma (C)</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/rohit-sharma-1024x683.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-93073"/><figcaption>Rohit Sharma</figcaption></figure>



Rohit Sharma will certainly be the first-choice opener for his team and will also be leading the side in the T20 World Cup. The right-hander has been an absolute pillar in his team's batting lineup.&nbsp;



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.







<h2>2. KL Rahul</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/09/KL-Rahul-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-94082" width="1042" height="786"/><figcaption>KL Rahul</figcaption></figure>



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.&nbsp;



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.







<h2>3. Virat Kohli</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/09/virat-kohli-1.jpg" alt="Asia Cup" class="wp-image-94188" width="1041" height="653"/><figcaption>Virat Kohli</figcaption></figure>



Virat Kohli who announced his arrival and being back to his imperious best in the Asia Cup will be a crucial part of India's XI in the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Asia_Cup">Asia Cup</a> for sure.&nbsp;



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.







<h2>4. Suryakumar Yadav</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/suryakumar-yadav-min-1-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-92706"/><figcaption>Suryakumar Yadav</figcaption></figure>



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.&nbsp;



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.







<h2>5. Hardik Pandya</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/07/Hardik-Pandya-compressed.jpg" alt="Hardik Pandya" class="wp-image-92290" width="1041" height="653"/><figcaption>Hardik Pandya</figcaption></figure>



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.







<h2>6. Dinesh Karthik</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/Dinesh-Karthik-vs-West-Indies-compressed.jpg" alt="Dinesh Karthik vs WI" class="wp-image-92509" width="1039" height="652"/><figcaption>Dinesh Karthik</figcaption></figure>



Dinesh Karthik will be given the role of a finisher in all probabilities for India in the T20 World Cup. 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.







<h2>7. Harshal Patel</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/Harshal-Patel-1024x576.jpg" alt="Harshal Patel set to miss Asia Cup 2022, doubtful starter for T20 World Cup 2022" class="wp-image-92610"/><figcaption>Image Source: Twitter</figcaption></figure>



Harshal Patel will be a possible choice to fill in the bowling all-rounder's spot in the team. He missed out on an opportunity to play in the Asia Cup owing to an injury.&nbsp;



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.







<h2>8. Ravichandran Ashwin</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/12/Ravichandran-Ashwin-1.jpg" alt="Ravichandran Ashwin" class="wp-image-81734" width="1039" height="734"/><figcaption>Ravichandran Ashwin (Image: ICC)</figcaption></figure>



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.&nbsp;



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.







<h2>9. Bhuvneshwar Kumar</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/06/Bhuvneshwar-Kumar.jpg" alt="Sunil Gavaskar wants India to carry Bhuvneshwar Kumar for T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia" class="wp-image-90978" width="1042" height="592"/><figcaption>Bhuvneshwar Kumar | Image: AFP</figcaption></figure>



Bhuvneshwar Kumar is going to be one of the most important players in India's bowling department in the T20 World Cup. 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.







<h2>10. Jasprit Bumrah</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/07/Jasprit-Bumrah.jpg" alt="Jasprit Bumrah, Harshal Patel clear fitness test, to be fit for T20 World Cup 2022: Reports" class="wp-image-91651"/><figcaption>Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



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.&nbsp;



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.







<h2>11. Arshdeep Singh</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/08/Arshdeep-Singh-1.jpg" alt="Ravi Shastri wants Arshdeep Singh in India?s T20 World Cup 2022 squad at any cost" class="wp-image-92622" width="1042" height="588"/><figcaption>Image Source: Twitter</figcaption></figure>



Arshdeep Singh took the cricketing world by surprise with his performances during the Asia Cup 2022. His ability to bowl the tough overs and effectively pick wickets and choke the runs has been extremely impressive recently.&nbsp;



With 14 wickets in 11 T20Is so far in his short career, he is certainly going to be a part of India's playing XI for the T20 World Cup 2022.

IND vs ENG 4th T20I: With the scoreline of 2-1, India and England are now going to play the fourth T20I of the series at the MCA Stadium, Pune. There is a lot at stake for England, but India has some breathing space. 
England have lost all three tosses so far and still managed to secure a win while batting first on a batting paradise. Meanwhile, India, who were used to winning series with a clean sweep, have lost one match in the series but can still wrap up the series in their favor today in Pune.
Let's take a look at the squads and strongest Playing11 possible for India and England in the 4th T20I:
<h2>IND vs ENG 4th T20I Squads</h2>
England Squad: Philip Salt, Ben Duckett, Jos Buttler(c), Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Jamie Smith(w), Jamie Overton, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood, Saqib Mahmood, Gus Atkinson, Jacob Bethell, Rehan Ahmed
India Squad: Sanju Samson(w), Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav(c), Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Dhruv Jurel, Mohammed Shami, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, Rinku Singh, Shivam Dube, Ramandeep Singh, Harshit Rana
<hr>
<h2>Playing11 and Strategies</h2>
INDIA: Rinku Singh has returned to contention after recovering from his injury. On Thursday, India's assistant coach, Ryan ten Doeschate, confirmed that he is fully fit. His extended net session further hinted at his potential inclusion in the playing XI for the upcoming match.  
When it comes to strategy, India relied heavily on spin in the previous game, fielding five spinners—Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Varun Chakaravarthy, Ravi Bishnoi, and Abhishek Sharma—alongside just two pacers, Mohammed Shami and Hardik Pandya.
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_67950e34bd1be.jpg" alt="">
However, the pitch in Pune is unlikely to offer much assistance to spinners. With Rinku Singh, a reliable left-handed batter, back in the mix, India could consider making a tactical adjustment by replacing Washington Sundar with an additional pacer, Arshdeep Singh, to strengthen their pace attack.
*India Playing11: Sanju Samson (wk), Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav (c), Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh, Varun Chakaravarthy
ENGLAND: England might go with the same playing11 as in the 3rd T20I. There isn't any solid reason for them to make any changes only if there is a forced one. Jamie Smith(if not available) might get replaced by Jacob Bathell if needed.
*England Playing11: Ben Duckett, Philip Salt (wk), Jos Buttler (c), Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Jamie Smith/Jacob Bethell, Jamie Overton, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood
<hr>
<h2>Pitch Report of Pune's MCA Stadium</h2>
The MCA Stadium in Pune is known for its batting-friendly conditions, making it a prime venue for high-scoring encounters. With short square boundaries and a true surface, batters often enjoy their time in the middle, and big totals are a common sight. If the scores don’t breach the 200-run mark, as was frequently seen in the last IPL, it would likely be due to disciplined bowling rather than any assistance from the pitch.
 <img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_679c4dfe0bbbc.jpg" alt="">
Unlike some other venues in India, dew is not a significant factor here, ensuring that both innings are played under fairly consistent conditions. Additionally, the pitch tends to remain firm throughout the game, offering good bounce for stroke play and providing some assistance to pacers who hit the deck hard. With these factors in play, the MCA Stadium is set to witness a thrilling contest filled with raining boundaries and aggressive stroke-making.
<hr>
<h2>IND vs ENG 4th T20I Dream11 Team and Fantasy Tips</h2>
Pune's MCA Stadium is a batting paradise, and unless we witness any sort of collapse, it will be a high-scoring game. Anything under 170 would be below-par. We will make our team based on this, and not to mention, there will be a risk factor. 
For Wicketkeeper, Jos Buttler is going to be the first choice for everyone and he is a must-pick player. Sanju Samson is our second pick as he is not much picked, and he is due for a good performance. There couldn't be a better ground other than MCA Stadium for him to get his form back. He is even a choice for captain if you can take extra risks. 
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_6798f7b286b99.jpg" alt="">
Tilak Verma is in great form and Ben Duckett is a good player of spin. With not much grip off the surface, these two batters are expected to fire to a good extent. SKY is under the radar and this Pune surface suits him so he is going to be in the team considering of what he can do when is in form. Tilak Verma or Ben Duckett can be another option for the captain and probably the safer option.
There are a lot of options in this section for both teams. Hardik Pandya and Liam Livingstone are two must-pick players and besides them, Overton might prove to be a good option. 
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_67990b84a34e9.jpg" alt="">
Arshdeep Singh, if plays the match, must be in the dream11 team. Replace him with Mohammed Shami if Arshdeep doesn't play. Varun Chakravarthy and Mark Wood would be the two other bowlers. 
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_430x256_6798f7b59f608.jpg" alt="">
This makes a strong team, more focused on the batting side as the pitch will favor the batters more. The bowling options are those who are most likely going to take wickets on such a surface. 
<h2>Dream11 Team- Grand League</h2>
Wicket-Keeper: Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson(C1) Batters: Surya Kumar Yadav, Den Duckett, Tilak Verma(C2) Allrounders: Hardik Pandya (VC), Liam Livingstone, J Overton Bowlers: Arshdeep Singh, V Chakravarthy, Mark Wood

The wait for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to be over. The tournament will begin on 19th February, and the final will take place on 9th March. The India team, no doubt, will be one of the hot favourites to win the tournament, which will be played in a hybrid model. 
India will be playing all their ICC Champions Trophy 2025 games in Dubai. The Rohit Sharma-led side will be beginning their campaign against Bangladesh on 20th February, and, after that, will be playing Pakistan on 23rd February, followed by New Zealand on 2nd March. 
The departure date of India for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 also has been revealed. As per the reports in Times of India, it is learned that the Rohit Sharma-led side will be travelling to Dubai on 15th February. The reports added that more clarity on the same will come in the coming days. 
<h2>India won't be playing any warmup matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025</h2>
Not only this, it is learned that India also won't be playing any warmup matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because all the teams will be in Pakistan, and hence, it will be difficult for the International Cricket Council (ICC) to arrange the warmup match. 
The reports added that India team management is happy with the net session ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because they will be playing the three-match ODI series against England, which will begin on 6th February across three venues in India. 
Apart from this, it is reported that the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 won't be having a captain photoshoot because of the different challenges along with the different arrivals of the team. This means that Rohit Sharma won't be travelling to Pakistan for this and will be staying in Dubai with the team. 
The opening ceremony of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be held in Lahore. There were talks of having the event in Karachi but the Pakistan Cricket Board decided to host it in Lahore.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: India to travel to Dubai on this date; unlikely to play warmup game

India batter Shubman Gill has started his preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The premier batter has returned to nets for the white-ball practice as he was named in the Indian team for the ODI series against England and the ICC tournament. 
Shubman Gill has been under a lot of pressure for his poor outings with the bat, especially in Test cricket. With the emergence of Yashasvi Jaiswal, who delivered consistent performances, there were a lot of questions about the place of Gill, even in the ODIs. 
Several fans and experts also have backed Yashasvi Jaiswal to open the innings for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 along with Rohit Sharma. However, amid all this Shubman Gill is making sure that he gives his best to train for the tournament. 
With England ODIs and ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner, Shubman Gill was seen batting in the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium. He was seen batting with the white-ball ahead of the tournament and the video can be seen at the end of the article. 
Shubman Gill looked in golden touch with the bat as he played a pull towards the four before blocking the balls. The batter would be eager to make a strong comeback and reply to all the criticism in style with his performances in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
Shubman Gill recently played the Ranji Trophy 2024-25 for Punjab. The batter was the lone warrior for his team as he hit a magnificent century and returned to form after having a poor outing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, where he played just three games. 
Shubman Gill would want to carry on his form and help a team win. He has been one of the best batters for India in ODIs. He also has been named as the vice-captain of the team for the tournament and with added responsibility under his belt, a lot will be reliant on him.

Pakistan batter Babar Azam has been in the news for the last few days, especially with the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner. The batter's name has been discussed a lot related to making him open, especially with no clarity over Saim Ayub. 
Pakistan is the only team that has yet to announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Since the last few days, he has been in the news as there have been a lot of reports that have suggested that there are chances that he might open the innings for the team. 
However, the fresh reports in Cricket Pakistan have revealed that there are no plans to make Babar Azam open the innings. The reports added that the selection committee has not given the green signal to the development as they feel that batter will be best suited in the middle order. 
<h2>Selectors want a proper opener in the role; Babar Azam to at in middle-order</h2>
The reports claimed that selectors want a proper opener in the role. One of the openers that has been finalized by the management is Fakhar Zaman. However, with Saim Ayub likely to miss out, it is learned that Imam-ul-Haq is also in contention to take the role. 
Babar Azam has been the best batter for Pakistan in ODIs. The batter has mustered truckloads of runs for the team in the format while batting at No.3 and he will be extremely crucial for his team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which will be played in Pakistan with India games to be played in India. 
Babar Azam also has been a decent opener as well. He has been opening for the team in T20Is and has achieved massive success as well. He also opened in Test cricket during the recent South Africa series and aced that challenge as well, slamming two half-centuries in two innings. 
But, in white-ball cricket, Babar Azam has been criticised a lot for opening in T20Is. This is because he has failed to maximise the powerplay and has been batting with a low strike rate. It remains to be seen where he will be batting for the team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

India assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate has provided a massive fitness update about batter Rinku Singh ahead of the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. He mentioned that the left-hander has gained full fitness and will be playing the next match of the five-match T20I series. 
India and England are all set to lock horns with each other in the fourth match of the T20I series. The game is all set to be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Thursday (30th January). The series is currently at 2-1, with hosts in the lead. 
India has been without the services of Rinku Singh for the last two games of the IND vs ENG series. The left-hander sustained a low back spasm while fielding in the first game and was then ruled out of the next two games of the series as he was under the observation of the BCCI medical team. 
In his place, the India team added Dhruv Jurel to the XI, and the move didn't pay off. The keeper-batter batted lower down the order and struggled to get going in both games, and it potentially cost them the last match of the series. 
<h2>Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow - Ryan Ten Doeschate</h2>
However, in what will be a massive boost, Rinku Singh has been declared fit for the next two games. The development was confirmed by assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate, who said that the batter hit nets and will be playing. He told reporters. 
"Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow. He batted yesterday night" 
Rinku Singh has been India's one of the best batters in the T20Is. His absence was felt in the last two games as well, but now, with him being fit, it is expected that he would walk straight into the XI and is likely to add Dhruv Jurel to the team. 
The fourth IND vs ENG T20I will be a great opportunity for India to to seal the series, but they need to make some corrections before heading into the next IND vs ENG match. 
India faced a disappointing 26-run loss in the last match at Rajkot. Their batting was one of the main reasons behind the loss and they would be hoping to make a strong comeback.
