ARSHDEEP SINGHRISHABH PANTROHIT SHARMAAfter India’s 60-run triumph over Bangladesh in the T20 World Cup warm-up, captain Rohit Sharma said the batting unit may alter. Sanju Samson opened with Virat Kohli, replacing Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli. Rishabh Pant, who upgraded to batting, scored 53 off 32 balls.
Shivam Dube seemed sluggish, while Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya looked fit. The team management is yet to decide the final playing XI, but Rohit was pleased with the performance. In the second inning of the warm-up game, the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium surface shifted, thus he stressed the significance of getting used to it.
It went well; we got what we wanted with the game. Must adapt to conditions. Sharma announced the new venue, ground, and field after the match.
Rishabh’s explosive number-three performance thrilled the 37-year-old. That doesn’t indicate his T20 World Cup place. Rohit wanted to give middle-order hitters a chance, which could have left Rishabh at number three.
To give Rishabh a chance. Our batting line-up is still in flux, but we wanted most guys to hit in the middle, the captain said.

Arshdeep Singh took two wickets in three overs against Bangladesh, giving up 12 runs. The captain values the youngster’s ability to bowl in the death overs and with the new ball. He said the 15 players are good enough to make the playing XI, but they will pick based on condition.
Arshdeep has proven to us that he has good front-end and back-end talents. We have 15 good players; we only need to nail the conditions and pick the best, added Rohit.
