The 15-member Indian squad for the ICC World Cup 2023 has been announced. Rohit Sharma has been given the captaincy of the team. At the same time, the responsibility of vice-captain has been handed by all-rounder Hardik Pandya.

After the announcement of the Indian team, former cricketer Virender Sehwag took to social media to express his feelings. He also indicated his agreement through a series of tweets regarding the discussion that the name should be changed to Bharat instead of India in Team Jersey.

India in Jersey:

The 44-year-old former cricketer Sehwag wrote, Team India nahin #TeamBharat. This World Cup as we cheer for Kohli , Rohit , Bumrah, Jaddu , may we have Bharat in our hearts and the players wear jersey which has “Bharat”
Fans also agreed with the former cricketer’s post. Commenting on Sehwag’s post, a cricket lover wrote, ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai.’ Another fan wrote Jai Hind Jai Bharat. Another fan wrote, ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai… Vande Mataram… Greetings to my Bharat’.

Virendra Sehwag join politics:

Also, following a series of tweets by Sehwag, a fan wrote to Sehwag, I always thought you should have become an MP before Gautam Gambhir. Sehwag responded, ‘I have no interest in politics. Both the major parties approached me in the last two elections. I am of the opinion that sportspersons should not enter politics. Because most do not give real time to people for their ego and hunger for power, few are the exception. I like to be involved in cricket. He has written that.

Former cricketer Virender Sehwag shared his opinion by writing BHAvsPAK instead of INDvPAK. I think any name should make us proud. We are Indians, India is the name given by the British. By writing that it took too long to return the name Bharat, Sehwag also waved his bat in favor of the name Bharat instead of India.
