India vs Sri Lanka: India will enter the Wankhede Stadium today for its seventh win. A new unique player can be included in the playing 11. Rohit Sharma told the entire team about this player.
In the ODI World Cup 2023, under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, the Indian team has got a great performance so far on the field. Team India will now have its next match with Sri Lanka at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Everyone is eyeing the Indian team’s playing-11 on this match, with Captain Rohit giving a big signal before the match. The Indian team has played six matches so far and won all, After which, with the match against Sri Lanka, Team India will fully settle their place for the semi-finals.
Will Ravichandran Ashwin return to Playing-11?
The Indian team has so far hit the ground with at least three fast bowlers in the opening six matches, with Jaspreet Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj playing prominently. Apart from this, Mohammad Shami is also part of the playing-11 from the last two matches after Hardik Pandya was injured, In such a situation, keeping in mind the pitch of Mumbai, the feeding of three major fast bowlers is considered almost certain. However, due to continuous match play, one can also decide to be given rest. Regarding this, Captain Rohit made it clear in the press talks held the day before the match that all the gendarmes are fully fit and no one wants to rest.
In such a situation, Ravichandran Ashwin’s return to playing-11 looks very difficult. Ashwin has been consistently running out of playing-11 since playing in the first match against Australia. Although Captain Rohit did not say anything clearly about the inclusion of Ashwin but pointed out that the team had three spinners and 2 fast bowlers when needed Can land on the field together. According to Rohit, spinners have definitely prevented runs from becoming faster in Middle Overs and such an option is always present for them.
