Ajit Agarkar said Virat Kohli should go with 6 bowlers in his playing 11

T20 World Cup | In the first match of T20 World Cup 2021, India has to face the Pakistani team. Team India is the biggest contender to win this tournament. There is one deadly player in this army of Virat Kohli. Let us tell you that since 2007 till date, Team India has never been able to become the champion of T20 World Cup. This time in Ace, the eyes of Team India will be on winning this trophy after 14 years.

Team India will become champion with this game plan

Former India fast bowler Ajit Agarkar believes that captain Virat Kohli should go with six bowlers considering the flat pitch in the UAE. Agarkar told Star Sports, 'Kohli will have the option of six bowlers. If the pitch has something to offer, you can probably take a chance with five bowlers, but if it's a flat pitch, he'll ideally want to go with six bowlers with three fast bowlers and they have a lot to offer. All spin options are also there.

Shardul should be included

Agarkar said, 'There is also Ravindra Jadeja as an all-rounder who has a better batting and you can see him as a top-order batsman. If Hardik Pandya does not bowl, then my six options will be Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Shardul Thakur, Jadeja, Varun Chakraborty and Rahul Chahar. Former India wicket-keeper batsman Parthiv Patel has said that Kohli should look at the combination with which he will go ahead.

There will be war between Bhuvi and Shardul

Patel said, "I am sure Kohli will know his XI and will also know what the team composition will be and with whom he will go ahead." The question for me is who will the team replace Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Shardul. He said, 'Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul will open and Kohli will be at number-3. Suryakumar is fourth, Rishabh Pant fifth and if Hardik is not bowling, then he should not be given a place where he can finish the match. Apart from this, there will be Jadeja, Rahul Chahar, Shami and Bumrah but the final choice will be between Shardul and Bhuvneshwar.
