The team will be led by Suryakumar Yadav, who has been named captain for the tournament, while Axar Patel will serve as vice-captain.

Strong Leadership and Batting Depth

Suryakumar Yadav’s appointment as captain highlights the team management’s trust in his leadership skills and consistent performances in the shortest format. Known for his innovative stroke play and calm approach, he will play a crucial role both as a leader and a batter.

The batting unit looks strong and dynamic with the inclusion of Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan, Tilak Varma, and Rinku Singh. These players bring aggression, flexibility, and match-winning ability to the top and middle order.

All-Round Strength in the Middle Order

India’s middle order is further strengthened by all-rounders Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Axar Patel, and Washington Sundar. Their ability to contribute with both bat and ball provides balance and depth, which is crucial in T20 cricket.

Lethal Bowling Attack

The bowling department features a powerful combination of pace and spin. Jasprit Bumrah will lead the pace attack alongside Arshdeep Singh and emerging fast bowler Harshit Rana.

Spin responsibilities will be handled by experienced campaigner Kuldeep Yadav and mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy, offering variety and control in the middle overs.
