Former Indian cricket great Harbhajan Singh offered his thoughts on the particular difficulties facing the Indian team as excitement for the India vs. Pakistan match at the ICC T20 World Cup grows.

In a special segment, Harbhajan Singh spoke exclusively about the strategic considerations for India’s playing XI and the uncertainty surrounding the surface conditions in New York.

Harbhajan Singh highlighted the pitches’ unpredictable nature by saying,

“Nobody is aware of the pitches. To be quite honest, the people creating it also have no idea how long it will last, how much water and heat it can withstand, how firm these pitches are, or how this pitch will bounce. “We’ll get a sense of the pitches and what should be the right combination for our side once the practice matches are over,” the player said exclusively in a special Star Sports Press Room ahead of India vs. Pakistan in the forthcoming ICC T20 World Cup.

In addition, the ‘Turbanator’ stated that we shouldn’t make comments regarding whether we should play with three or two spinners and instead encouraged flexibility in team selection based on a detailed evaluation of the conditions following practice matches.

Therefore, we shouldn’t argue over whether to play with two or three spinners. After the conditions are thoroughly evaluated, I believe the squad should be assembled. All things considered, I believe we should start with our five greatest bowlers. Without a doubt, Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal ought to play. Jasprit Bumrah and any two of the other seamers should be among the three who play. We have a wide range of choices when it comes to batting. Ultimately, though, we will need to adjust to the pitch regardless of its characteristics, Bhajji said.

India’s only pre-T20 World Cup match is scheduled for 2024.

Unlike in past tournaments where they usually played two warm-up games, India is playing just one warm-up game in preparation for the T20 World Cup. The choice for a single game that will take place in New York has raised rumours. Although the precise reasoning is unknown, it is thought that the Indian players are unwilling to make the long trips necessary for practice matches since they are worn out from their heavy IPL schedules and travel.

Warm-up games are frequently aired on television and have substantial commercial value. A 2015 warm-up match between Australia and India was televised in Australia but not in India, indicating the high level of interest in these matches.

The majority of teams will get two warm-up matches each, although England and Pakistan, who are playing a bilateral series, won’t have as much time. Warm-up matches are anticipated to take place on May 25–26, with the World Cup scheduled to start on June 1.

May 25 and 26 are India’s scheduled departure dates for New York, where they will play their league debuts. June 5 (against Ireland), June 9 (against Pakistan), and June 12 (against the United States) are the team’s scheduled games in New York. On June 15, they have a match in Florida against Canada before travelling to the West Indies for the Super Eight stage.
