5 Indian Players to watch for Super 8:
1. Rinku Singh:
Rinku Singh is a trump card for team India. He is a great fielder and can score with solid strike rate at the end that can help India to score more runs. He is a match finisher, and he played exceptionally well against Pakistan though he scored 11 runs but in only 4 balls. In T20 games, each run is count so he can be a trump card for team India.
2. Hardik Pandya:
An All-rounder and destructive player who can bowl, bat and field. Hardik Pandya failed to score runs against Pakistan, but he took important wickets and played his part of role.
3. Jasprit Bumrah:
Jasprit is a World Class bowler, and he has proved by taking 2 wickets in a single over against Pakistan. India won the match in that over itself as Jasprit has created a humongous pressure on team Pakistan by his extra ordinary spell.
4. Tilak Verma:
Tilak Verma is playing a role of Virat Kohli. We cannot compare him with Kohli, but Tilak understands his game really well and can score runs with a good strike rate as well. Abhishek and Ishan both play aggressively and always a fear of losing wickets at early stage at that time batsman like Tilak can help team to revive from such situation.
5. Varun Chakravarthy:
Varun Chakravarthy is a magical spinner and create a pressure on opposition team with his solid spell. Many players are not understanding his bowling style and also bowl with a good economy rate that creates a pressure on other teams.
All 11 players are quite good but above-mentioned players can be a trump card for team India in Super 8. India won the last T20 World Cup under the captainship of Rohit Sharma, and this time Surya Kumar Yadav has the responsibility to defend the title of T20 World Cup.
A host team never won the World Cup in history and last time winner has also never won consecutively. Surya Kumar can handle the pressure very well and India has a solid chance to win this T20 World Cup title for the 3rd time.
All the very best to team India for matches of Super 8.
