India has undoubtedly been one of the most dangerous T20I teams in recent years. India currently holds the number-one spot in the ICC T20I rankings. Team India has performed well over the last two years and is in good form. Team India is full of stars like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Chahal, Ashwin, etc.
However, injuries to Jasprit Bumrah and Jadeja will affect India’s bowling line-up. Suryakumar Yadav, who is second in the ICC T20I batsmen rankings, is the backbone of team India. The Indian team is in Group 2, consisting of Pakistan, Bangladesh and South Africa. On October 23, India will play against Pakistan in its first match.

India T20 World Cup 2022: Players to Watch out for
Suryakumar Yadav:
The sensational Suryakumar Yadav is India’s trump card in this T20 World Cup. He is in excellent form and ranks second in the ICC T20 batsman rankings. If we talk about the batting strength, Suryakumar has scored the most runs in t20i this year with a strike rate of 176. Suryakumar, currently in form, will thrash the bowlers with 360° shots.
Virat Kohli:
Virat Kohli is one of the most dangerous batsmen in cricket history. Any bowler will be afraid to bowl if Virat Kohli stands with the bat at the striking end. Virat Kohli struggled to find his form and has been in excellent form since the Asia Cup. In the Asia Cup, Virat Kohli hit a century against Afghanistan.
Virat Kohli is the only player who has won twice the ICC t20 world cup man of the tournament award. Kohli also has extensive experience, having played 109 Twenty20 Internationals.
Rohit Sharma:
The captain of the Indian team, Rohit Sharma, will also be the backbone of Indian batting. Rohit Sharma has played for India in 139 matches, so he has a lot of experience. Rohit was a member of the team India that won the T20 World Cup for the first time. Rohit Sharma is coming to the T20 World Cup for the first time as a captain. The bowlers will suffer if Rohit Sharma regains his batting form.
