These changes are necessary if India wants to avoid loss in the semi-finals.

IND vs NED: After a long wait of 44 matches of the World Cup 2023, the 4 teams of the semi-finals have finally been decided. Team India, which won 8 consecutive matches, first made it to the semi-finals, after which South Africa and Australia also reached. Now New Zealand has also officially registered its name. Now it is a strange coincidence that again Team India will face New Zealand in the semi-finals. Team India has one last chance to prepare for this match, the match against Netherlands. Team India will play this match in Bengaluru on Sunday 12th November and in this, Team India will need to make some special changes.

Team India performed consistently well in every match of the World Cup. Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul have contributed the most in batting. All the bowlers have performed tremendously so far and have led the team to 8 consecutive wins. Now the match against Netherlands is just a formality. Due to it being Diwali, less people may be paying attention to this match, but Team India needs to pay attention to some special things in this match, so that every player is fully prepared before the match against New Zealand.

Surya-Jadeja should be promoted

Team India's top order has shown the power of its bat in the tournament. Although Shubman Gill has not been able to play big innings, he has also contributed in getting a good start. Shreyas Iyer and Rahul have also given good support in between. Rohit and Virat's form is good. In batting, Suryakumar Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja are the only two names who have not faced many balls.

Although both of them also have the role of finisher, but considering what happened in the semi-finals of 2019, Team India would like to keep its lower-middle order also prepared for such a situation. So far, Surya has faced only 74 balls in 4 innings, while Jadeja has played 96 balls. In such a situation, against Netherlands, both of them can be promoted to fourth and fifth positions, so that both can play long innings.

It is important to try these bowlers

Talking about bowling, Team India has a chance to give rest to bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami in this match, but giving rest to Bumrah is a better option. Anyway, Shami has played only 4 matches and bowled only 26 overs. In such a situation they can be retained. There would be no better opportunity than this for the team management to try out the young fast bowler Prasidh Krishna. If unfortunately any pacer has to sit out due to injury before the semi-finals, then Prasidh will at least have some match practice. Apart from him, experienced spinner Ravichandran Ashwin can also be fielded. Ashwin played only the first match against Australia and has been on the bench since then.
