Apart from Rohit, the form of these two is also poor, it can be a headache in the final match of WTC
The Indian Premier League 2023 season has reached its final stage. Gujarat Titans, Chennai Super Kings, Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians have been able to secure their place in the playoffs. The final match of IPL will be played on Sunday (May 27). After this, the final match of the World Test Championship will be played between India and Australia. The fight will take place on June 7 at The Oval Stadium in England. Ahead of the WTC final, two players from the Indian team seem to be raising the concerns of the team management.
The Indian team has reached the final of the World Test Championship for the second time in a row. Last time India lost to Mumbai Indians in the WTC final. This time, India will face the challenge of a strong Australian team before the WTC can be lifted. Compared to New Zealand, the Australian team is considered to be expert in playing Test cricket. In this case, this victory will not be easy for India.
The Indian team has been plagued by injuries for the last few months. Jasprit Bumrah has been out of the team for the past several months due to injury. After Bumrah, Rishabh Pant was also ruled out of the team in December last year due to an injury sustained in an accident. Pant’s comeback will also take a long time. Shreyas Iyer was injured while playing the home series against Australia. While KL Rahul was out of the league due to injury during IPL 2023. The injury of these four is also becoming a matter of concern for India.
In Bumrah’s absence, India’s bowling attack is led by Mohammad Shami and Mohammad Siraj. Both of them have performed brilliantly in IPL 2023. Thus, both will enter the field with full confidence while playing in the WTC final. Apart from these two, Umesh Yadav and Shardul Thakur are also two fast bowlers in the team. If the Indian team plays with four fast bowlers on the England pitch, Umesh and Shardul can be included in the playing eleven.
Although Umesh and Shardul have been selected for this England tour, the duo’s IPL performances have been rather poor. Shardul has taken seven wickets at an average of 31.42 in 11 matches for Kolkata Knight Riders this year. Also as a batsman he has scored 113 runs at an average of 20.36. On the other hand, the performances of our Umesh Yadav have been seen more smoothly. Umesh has scored 189 runs in eight matches for KKR this year and has taken just one wicket. It will be interesting to see who the team management will give a chance as the third fast bowler. Apart from these two, spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja are also likely to fail in England. Because the conditions in England are not as favorable for spin bowling as in India.
