Sourav Ganguly select Team India captain for T20 world cup 2024
Hitman Rohit Sharma, who returned to the T20 team after a long absence through the recent 3-match series against Afghanistan, had a clean sweep of 3-0 under his captaincy.
Former BCCI president Sourav Ganguly said that the decision taken by Rohit Sharma to lead the Indian team in the upcoming 2024 T20 World Cup tournament is correct. The 2024 Cricket World Cup will be jointly hosted by the West Indies and the United States from June 1.
Hitman Rohit Sharma, who returned to the T20 team after a long absence through the recent 3-match series against Afghanistan, had a clean sweep of 3-0 under his captaincy. In an interaction with Mid-Day, Ganguly opined that Team India’s experienced opener Rohit Sharma is the right choice to lead the team in the World Cup tournament.
Rohit Sharma led the team to win 10 consecutive matches under his captaincy in the ODI World Cup tournament held at home ground. Similarly, the former BCCI president said that he will successfully lead the team in the T20 World Cup tournament as well.
“Rohit Sharma is the best choice to lead Team India in the T20 World Cup tournament. The memory of how he brought victory to the Indian team in 10 matches in a row in the ODI World Cup tournament is still remembered, so Rohit Sharma is the best choice,” said Sourav Ganguly.

BCCI Secretary Jay Shah had said that before the third Test match against England in Rajkot, Rohit Sharma himself will lead the Indian team in the World Cup tournament.
We (Team India) have lost in the 2023 ODI World Cup tournament. But we have won the hearts of the fans by winning 10 matches in a row. “I am confident that under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, the Indian team will win the 2024 T20 World Cup trophy,” Jaya Shah expressed confidence.

Hardik Pandya led Team India:
Acting captain Hardik Pandya, who led Team India in Rohit Sharma’s absence, recently took over the captaincy from Rohit Sharma in Mumbai Indians. So there was a doubt whether Hardik Pandya will lead the Indian team even in the upcoming World Cup tournament.
Hardik Pandya, who has successfully led the Indian team in 11 T20I matches, is out of the team due to an ankle injury during the 2023 One Day World Cup match against Bangladesh, and there are chances of returning to competitive cricket through the IPL 2024 tournament.
