IND vs AFG / There will be changes in Team India even after victory, this player will get a place!

IND vs AFG: After defeating Australia in its first match of World Cup 2023, Team India is ready for the next match. In the first match played in Chennai, Team India had made a strong start by winning by 6 wickets. Now Team India has to face Afghanistan in its second match of the tournament. This match will be played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Wednesday 11 October. The Indian team would like to move higher in the points table with a win for the second consecutive match. The question will be that despite the victory, will Team India make any changes in its playing eleven?

Team India's bowlers looked in full form in the first match against Australia. Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah especially troubled the Australian batsmen and then bundled them out for 199 runs. Although at one time it seemed difficult for Team India to win in batting, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul batted brilliantly and gave a memorable victory. In such a situation, it seems that Team India will not make any changes.

Rohit gave tension?

Still this question is arising. One reason for this is the failure of Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer in the first match. Both the batsmen had failed to open the account against Australia. Ishan was out in the first over and Shreyas was out in the second over. The shots of both were very bad. Along with these, captain Rohit Sharma also failed to open the account. Team India's score was 3 wickets for 2 runs. In such a situation, is there a need for change in batting? This is not expected to happen on the basis of just one match.

Firstly, Shubman Gill is still not completely fit and will not be able to play in this match. In such a situation, there is no other option in his place in the opening. Secondly, Shreyas has shown good form recently. In such a situation, it is necessary to give them another chance. As far as captain Rohit is concerned, he definitely gave tension to Team India. Team India had a practice session on Tuesday, a day before the match, in which only a few players had turned up. Captain Rohit Sharma was also among them and it was here that he got injured.

According to reports, while batting in the nets, captain Rohit was hit hard by a ball in his leg, due to which he appeared to be in pain. This increased the heartbeats of Team India's coach Rahul Dravid and the entire support staff. However, soon everyone got relief and Rohit started batting again. Then he did not appear to be in any trouble. That means Rohit will play in this match also.

Expected change in bowling

As far as bowling is concerned, there may be some possibility here. One match of the tournament has been played in Delhi in which a total of 754 runs were scored. Batting first, South Africa scored 428 runs, while Sri Lanka also scored 326 runs. In such a situation, there is a possibility of this happening in the India-Afghanistan match also. Also, the effect of dew may be visible in Delhi and in such a situation it may become difficult for the spinners.

In this situation, Team India does not see any other option other than dropping Ravichandran Ashwin. There is a possibility that Mohammed Shami may be fielded, who is capable of taking wickets in the middle overs. This will reduce the depth in Indian batting but the bowling will be suitable for these conditions. Anyway, in the last World Cup, Shami had given a close victory to Team India by taking a hat-trick in the last over against Afghanistan.

India's probable playing 11

Rohit Sharma (captain), Ishan Kishan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj.
