The much anticipated India squad for the T20 World Cup 2022 has finally been announced. The squad will be led by Rohit Sharma and is pretty similar to the team that played in the Asia Cup 2022. However, it has a more settled bowling lineup as Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel have claimed their spots back after missing out on the last tournament due to injuries.
The reason why India can win the T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia
India has named a pretty balanced squad with both the batting and bowling department looking settled. There are big names in the squad and there’s no reason why India can’t win the T20 World Cup 2022. With all the departments looking good, it’s now up to the players to execute their plans on the field. As the marquee event is around the corner, we look at the reasons why India can win the event in Australia.
Senior players returning to form
One of the main reasons why India can win the T20 World Cup 2022 is that senior players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul have returned to form. The trio has failed to perform for the last few months, which was one of the main reasons behind India’s downfall of late. The fact that they are back to the scoring ways and will be India’s top three in the World Cup will be a massive boost for the team and could turn out to be the reason for them winning the cup.

Quality pace attack
Another reason why India can win the T20 World Cup 2022 is that their pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah along with Harshal Patel is back in the team after missing the Asia Cup 2022. The return of the duo will be a big positive considering the death bowling abilities they possess, which India lacked in the last tournament. The presence of Bumrah and Harshal can allow India to give the extended spells to Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the power play and look for wickets. Also, they have Arshdeep Singh in the side who can be useful both at the start as well as the death.

Solid finishers
India also has the luxury of top-quality finishers who can help the team end the innings on a high in almost every match. The likes of Dinesh Karthik, Hardik, and Akshar Patel of late have been in staggering form and have provided finishes to the team in almost every match. If top-order fires then they can complement them well and help India win the title as well. Also in the worst case, if the top batters fail they can build the innings as well.
