New Delhi: Prior to the T20 World Cup, the Indian cricket team is busy assembling its starting lineup. Playing a series against a powerful team like England can’t be better. In the three-match T20 series, there will be one player with a particular eye. The batsman faces a challenging test in England after capturing everyone’s attention with his ferocious batting against Ireland. This is the batsman who is most frequently brought up when discussions regarding Virat Kohli’s bad performance and position arise. On Thursday at 11 p.m., the opening match of the three-match T20I series will take place between India and England. Players who recently participated in Test matches were not given an opportunity to play in this game. The team does not include Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer, or Jasprit Bumrah. In this case, the players have the opportunity to stake their claim in the T20 World Cup.
We’re referring to Deepak Hooda, who was crucial against Ireland. By making the first opening and then scoring a century at number three, this guy has dazzled everyone. Deepak has demonstrated the form required to compete in the T20 World Cup. His game has emerged after earning a spot in Team India thanks to a successful IPL performance. Legends like Virat Kohli could run into trouble if he scores in these three games versus England.
Best of Hooda, worst of Kohli
Regarding the current T20 competition, Hooda played 15 matches in the coveted IPL league of the BCCI and amassed 451 runs on the basis of four half-centuries. He played a good inning in difficult circumstances in his Lucknow Supergiants debut. Speaking of Virat, he only had 341 runs in his account after 16 IPL games. While Kohli’s bat had managed to score 8 sixes.
Hooda’s bat hammered 36 fours and 18 sixes to take over for Virat
In all formats of T20, Virat is having trouble scoring runs right now due to his poor form. Virat has typically only been seen playing in the third and fourth positions for Team India. Hooda enjoys this location for the batsman as well. This batsman has scored runs on this sequence in both the IPL and international T20. This spot in the T20 World Cup given to Hooda is due to Virat’s poor performance and his unsteady rhythm.
