There is no doubt that Yashasvi Jaiswal will start. Four prospective Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli successors are named by Dinesh Karthik

The seasoned Indian batting duo of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have established themselves as legendary figures in the sport. Both hitters have contributed significantly to the team’s success over the years. Without a doubt, both hitters will be walking away from a tremendous career when the time comes.

After helping India win the 2024 T20 World Cup in the USA and the West Indies, both batters recently announced their retirement from Twenty20 International cricket. As their careers approached the end, veteran India cricketer Dinesh Karthik stepped up to suggest four possible successors for Rohit and Kohli.

The Men in Blue’s future lineup will feature players such as Yashasvi Jaiswal, Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, and Ruturaj Gaikwad in place of the two great batters, according to Karthik.

“I think there are currently four options in the starting XI, but they (Rohit Sharma and Kohli) are very difficult to replace.

Shubman Gill, Tilak Varma, Abhishek Sharma, and Ruturaj Gaikwad are present. In T20I cricket, I believe Yashasvi Jaiswal would undoubtedly start in the XI, Dinesh Karthik was cited by India Today as saying.

For their forthcoming tour to Sri Lanka, India’s vice captain for both ODIs and T20Is will be Shubman Gill. Despite a few difficult patches, Gill has earned his spot in the squad via his outstanding achievements for both India and the IPL. The star batter is a fantastic possibility for India’s future.

Conversely, Yashasvi Jaiswal has established himself as an actual star player for the Indian team. Jaiswal has been an absolute star for India in the top-order, dominating both Test and IPL cricket with his great performances, and it is obvious that the BCCI wants to invest in him.

In the recent series against Zimbabwe, Abhishek Sharma made his debut for India and impressed by scoring a century as well.
