Former India captain Rohit Sharma has named Hardik Pandya and Arshdeep Singh as crucial players for India’s 2026 T20 World Cup campaign, highlighting their impact in key phases.

Rohit Sharma identifies Arshdeep, Hardik as key to India's chances in T20 World Cup

Former India captain Rohit Sharma has named Hardik Pandya and Arshdeep Singh as crucial players for India&rsquo;s 2026 T20 World Cup campaign, highlighting their impact in key phases.

T20 World Cup-winning captain Rohit Sharma reckons all-rounder Hardik Pandya and left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh will hold the key to India's prospects in the upcoming edition of the tournament.&nbsp;
Defending champions India will enter the T20 showpiece as one of the overwhelming favourites due to their massive depth and quality.
Rohit highlighted Arshdeep's effectiveness with the new ball and at the death.
"It is a big positive to have both Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh together because they always attack for wickets. Arshdeep's biggest strength is swinging the new ball and taking early wickets. He mainly bowls with the new ball and at the death. Starting and finishing are the most important phases, and he is strong in both," Rohit told JioHotstar.
"With the new ball, he swings it to get left-handers caught in the slips and targets the pads of right-handers. He has also started taking the ball away from right-handers. These skills are key for a new-ball bowler. He always tries to take wickets, which is why he bowls the first over."
Rohit added, "In the 2024 T20 World Cup final against South Africa, he did a great job. I still remember he dismissed Quinton de Kock when he was set and batting well. In the 19th over, he gave away just two or three runs, which built pressure on the South Africans.
"That is his game, bowling with the new ball and at the death, and he will play a key role for India in the 2026 T20 World Cup."
India won the last edition of the tournament in the Americas under Rohit's captaincy, after which the dashing opener retired from the T20 format internationally.
Rohit also spoke about how Hardik's dual role as a finisher and multi-phase bowler provides crucial balance to the Indian team.
"Whenever Hardik Pandya is in the team, his role is huge. He bats and bowls very consistently. His batting is crucial when the team is stuck. If we have a score of 160 on the board in 15-16 overs and Hardik is batting, then he's the one who can help the team reach 210-220 from there or if we are 50 for 4, he has to build the innings.
"Batting in the middle order at 5, 6, or 7 is very tough. That is why Hardik's role is critical in any format. We know his bowling. He bowls in key phases, with the new ball, in the middle and in the death as well. His role is very important because he gives the team balance, letting us play six bowlers and keep our batting deep."
Rohit said accommodating both Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy together in the playing XI is going to be a big challenge for the Indian team management.
"The biggest challenge for captain Suryakumar Yadav and coach Gautam Gambhir will be how to play both Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakaravarthy together. If you want that combination, you can only do it if you play with two seamers, which is a big challenge.
"But honestly, I would be tempted to play both Varun and Kuldeep because they are wicket-takers and batters struggle to read them. I would surely pick them."
The former India skipper added, "Looking at the conditions in India, like in this New Zealand series, there is a lot of dew. In February and March, dew will be heavy across most parts as winter ends.
"Even in Mumbai, which doesn't get cold, there's still dew. I'd say 90-95 percent of grounds in India have dew. That's the challenge. What do the coach and captain think? Are they comfortable with three spinners? Then they can play spin, but there's no fixed rule. It depends on the team leaders' thinking."
Rohit also urged Kuldeep to stop appealing on every ball and to rely on the wicketkeeper's judgment for reviews.
"My one simple advice to Kuldeep is to just bowl quietly and go back to his mark. You can't appeal on every ball. This is basic. I keep saying it, but it still happens often. Even after telling him many times, he appeals at every chance. You have to use your head. Just because it touches the pad, it doesn't mean it's out every time. This isn't gully cricket.
"I get he is enthusiastic, but think of the team first. Each team only gets two DRS reviews. If I was the keeper, I could see where the ball pitched and if it was hitting, I could tell the bowler.
"But from covers or slip, you don't know the angle. You have to listen to what the keeper and bowler say. That's why when there's a review off Kuldeep's bowling, I don't look at him, I look at the keeper to decide."
The T20 World Cup is scheduled to be held in venues across India and Sri Lanka from February 7 to March 8.

Arshdeep Singh is focusing on red-ball cricket for India's Test series against England. Preparing in Kent, he joins a new squad led by Shubman Gill, aiming to showcase his skills amid talented rising stars.

Arshdeep Singh Gears Up for England Test Series

India's Arshdeep Singh is sharpening his red-ball skills in Kent, anticipating a Test debut against England. The new-look Indian team is without veterans but promises an exciting series with new talent.

Arshdeep Singh is honing his red-ball skills in Kent ahead of India's Test series in England. The squad, led by Shubman Gill and missing veterans like Kohli, includes emerging stars eager to face the English challenge.

India left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh is delighted to be back in Kent where he had earlier played county cricket as he looks to rediscover his red-ball rhythm ahead of the five-match Test series against England beginning June 20.
The 26-year-old is eyeing his maiden Test appearance after being named in the Indian squad. The team is playing a four-day tour match against India A at the Kent County Cricket Ground at Beckenham from June 13.
Primarily known for his white-ball exploits, Arshdeep, who represented Kent in the County Championship two years ago, had a notable season in the IPL 2025 with Punjab Kings, who finished runners-up.
"As for today&rsquo;s training session, my only motivation was to get a feel for the rhythm -- how the body feels, how the red ball is coming out of the hand -- because all the players have been playing with the white ball for quite a while. So I really enjoyed it," he told BCCI.TV.
"Going forward, as we keep progressing step by step, the intensity will keep increasing, and we&rsquo;ll keep making it more and more difficult for the batters to face the ball." India, without the services of retired Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, will be led by new skipper Shubman Gill. The team includes a crop of young batters such as Sai Sudharsan and Yashasvi Jaiswal.
Arshdeep said he is enjoying bowling to his team-mates as he sharpens his red-ball skills.
"It was fun bowling to the batters. They looked quite compact, and there was a competitive spirit&mdash;even though we were just working on rhythm, they were fully competing. So that made it even more fun," he said.
"We had to grind properly and try to get them out with a solid plan. Sai has joined the team for the first time, and he looked very compact too. The skipper looked in good touch. I&rsquo;ll try my best to keep improving and get them out more often going ahead." &lsquo;When your attack includes Bumrah, comparison doesn't exist&rsquo; ===================================== Arshdeep said he is focused on enhancing his skills while training alongside pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah.
"Whenever I hold the ball, I always feel that I am the best. But everyone knows&mdash;when you&rsquo;re in an attack that includes a player named Jasprit Bumrah, then the word 'comparison' doesn&rsquo;t even exist," he said.
"So, the focus is on how we can improve each other&rsquo;s game, each other&rsquo;s skill sets&mdash;and how we can help the team. That&rsquo;s where my focus lies." Reflecting on his earlier stint in Kent, Arshdeep said: "It feels really good to be here. At first, you get that &lsquo;homely&rsquo; feeling, that yes, I&rsquo;ve spent two months here before, so it feels great. I&rsquo;m really looking forward to creating many more memories here.
"It&rsquo;s a small place, very peaceful. Not many people around. If you need peace of mind, this is the best place&mdash;because there&rsquo;s always a cool breeze blowing, a soft warmth from the sun, and when you sip hot chocolate in that setting, it&rsquo;s pure bliss.
"And if you have a sweet tooth, make sure to have some churros with it," said Arshdeep.
The opening Test begins in Leeds on June 20.

The young left-arm pacer conceded 37 runs in his first three overs and nobody expected him to defend 10 runs with Australian skipper Matthew Wade on strike.&nbsp;

It was skipper Suryakumar Yadav's faith, believes Arshdeep Singh that helped him bowl a heroic final over

The young left-arm pacer conceded 37 runs in his first three overs and nobody expected him to defend 10 runs with Australian skipper Matthew Wade on strike. 

The young left-arm pacer conceded 37 runs in his first three overs and nobody expected him to defend 10 runs with Australian skipper Matthew Wade on strike.&nbsp;

Arshdeep Singh felt that it was simply divine intervention and unhinged faith from his skipper Suryakumar Yadav which enabled him to defend 10 runs in the final over of a thrilling fifth T20 International, wherein India pipped Australia by just six runs.
The left-arm seamer has been profligate at the death in T20Is for more than one year and after giving away 37 runs in his first three overs on Sunday, no one would have thought that he would be able to defend just 10 with the dangerous Matthew Wade on strike.
"I gave away too many runs but God gave me another chance and the support staff believed in me. To be honest, nothing was going in my mind. Surya bhai told me whatever has to happen will happen," a beaming Arshdeep said at the end of the match, having nailed those block-hole deliveries, giving away only three runs.
On his own bowling, he said,"A lot of lessons learnt but I will come back from the mistakes." Skipper Surya felt that the young team ticked all boxes in a comprehensive series win by 4-1 margin.

This series might not cover up for the World Cup final loss but it has surely given Team India some bright youngsters to bank on for the T20 World Cup next year.

3 of those no balls came on consecutive deliveries in his very-first over which set the stage nicely for the Lankans. In fact, Arshdeep became the first Indian ever to bowl hat-trick of no balls in the same over.
In the 19th over, Arshdeep found himself at the receiving end once again at a time when India had bounced back in the game. Two more no balls saw him give away 18 runs as Sri Lanka posted a mammoth 206/6.

T20 World Cup 2022: Top 5 Indian stars to watch out for

The men who could bring home the #T20WorldCup glory for Team India 

Here are the 5 Indian players to watch out for at the marquee event in Australia.

The Indian team is packed with powerful players who are individually capable of turning the tide on their day.

Team India is always one of the favourites in any tournament they play in and T20 World Cup 2022 is no different. The Indian team is packed with powerful players who are individually capable of turning the tide on their day.
<h3>Here are 5 players who other teams should be wary of:</h3>
<h3>Suryakumar Yadav</h3>
The first name that comes to everyone's mind when talking about match-winners is that of Suryakumar Yadav. Th2 32-year-old has taken the cricketing world by storm with his 360-degree shot range and isn't afraid to go hell for leather from ball 1. Surya has been in sublime form and is the highest run-getter in T20I in 2022. In 23 innings in the shortest format, he has smashed 801 runs at a whopping strike rate of almost 185. He also scored a hundred and 6 half-centuries during those knocks.&nbsp;

<h3>Virat Kohli</h3>
Making a list of best players and not having Virat Kohli on it would be a sin. Once struggling to find his mojo back, the former India skipper is back to his best. In the last 10 T20Is, Virat has smashed 404 runs including his 71st international hundred and 3 half-centuries. His average of almost 58 and strike rate of over 140 are also impressive. Apart from his batting, Kohli's experience on the field will also come in handy for the Men in Blue.
<h3>Dinesh Karthik</h3>
Dinesh Karthik has become a revelation in the past few months and emerged as the finisher that Team India needed ever since MS Dhoni's retirement. IPL 2022 proved to be the turning point in his career where he smashed 330 runs in 16 innings at a strike rate of over 183. Moreover, his strike rate in the last 7 T20Is is 222.22 which speaks for itself.&nbsp;
<h3>Arshdeep Singh</h3>
Not many believed that a kid from Punjab would be India's biggest hope in bowling at the T20 World Cup but most fans have pinned their belief on Arshdeep Singh following his recent exploits. The 23-year-old has not only taken wickets up front but has been lethal with his yorkers in the death. The fast bowler has already taken 19 wickets in 13 T20Is he has played in. In Jasprit Bumrah's absence, it's Arshdeep Singh who will have to bear the burden of over a billion dreams.
<h3>Hardik Pandya</h3>
One man who can change the game on its head with both bat and ball for India is Hardik Pandya. May it be giving the Men in Blue a strong finish or being a golden arm to break a partnership, Hardik is always up for the challenge. Upon his return from injury, Hardik was judged as the player of the 3-match T20 series in Australia last year. The Baroda lad also guided Gujarat Titans to their maiden IPL title this year. His form with the bat is second to none in 2021. In 19 T20Is this year, Hardik has smashed 436 runs at a strike rate of over 155.&nbsp;

Indian openers proved to be the biggest disappointment for the Men in Blue Down Under. The Rohit-Rahul pair managed a highest partnership of 27 runs in 6 matches.

After India bagged their first T20I series at home against the Proteas, skipper Rohit Sharma pointed out that India needs to work on their death bowling in order to win more matches.

‘We need to get our act together' - Captain Rohit Sharma on India's death bowling

Team India skipper Rohit Sharma wants the team to improve and execute their bowling plans to perfection in the future.

Here's what he said

Team India's death bowling has not been upto the mark in the last few games and skipper Rohit Sharma feels that team needs to focus on the same and try to improve the performance.

After India bagged their first T20I series at home against the Proteas, skipper Rohit Sharma pointed out that India needs to work on their death bowling in order to win more matches.
While the Indian bowlers only managed to take 3 wickets in their 2nd T20I against South Africa, Rohit feels that the team's death bowling hasn't been effective in the last few games and that they want to execute their bowling plans in a certain way.
"To bowl and bat at the death is very tough. That is where the game is decided. It is not concerning, but we need to pick ourselves and get our act together" Rohit said in his post match interview.
With the Indian contingent set to fly to Australia post the 3rd T20I on Tuesday, India will be hoping their bowlers can end the series on a high before the T20 World Cup Down Under.

Former Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Kamran Akmal thinks that the Indian cricket team have finally found their next Zaheer Khan in the name of young pacer Arshdeep Singh after the 23-year-old impressed with his bowling against South Africa.

The recent bowling shenanigans of young pacer Arshdeep Singh has former Pakistan player Kamran Akmal calling him "India's new Zaheer Khan"

Former Pakistan wicket keeper-batter Kamran Akmal thinks that the Indian cricket team have finally found their next Zaheer Khan in pacer Arshdeep Singh.
Calling the 23-year-old an incredible bowler, Akmal said he has been very impressed with Arshdeep Singh.
Arshdeep, who wreaked havoc on the South African batsmen in Thiruvananthapuram , picked up the Player of the Match award for his brilliant bowling spell of 3 for 32.
While calling Arshdeep the next Zaheer on his Youtube channel, Akmal said, &ldquo;Arshdeep has both, pace and swing, and he has that bowling intelligence. He's mentally strong and knows his abilities, and uses them according to the conditions.&rdquo;
