Indian Cricket Team eyeing to break their loosing streak to win ICC trophies over the years are all set to kickstart their campaign in the ICC T-20 World Cup 2024 being held in USA & West Indies together. The 9th edition of the World Cup started on June 2 and will be lasted till June 29. India will play its first match on 5th June against Ireland.

Meanwhile the Indian squad looks quite buckled up for the tournament, there are still some quizes team management has to solve before they get into the group stage. The very first, opening pair or who will be opening for India with captain Rohit Sharma! There are few options India might try rather than simply going with supposed to be opener Yashasvi Jaiswal:

1. Yashasvi Jaiswal

Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma, the right and left hand combination will be the best option India will opt for the T-20 World Cup. The pair enjoyes batting together with a staggering record together. While Jaiswal's form could be one reason India will rethink on who should they brought to open the innings.

2. Sanju Samson

What if India brings a wicket-keeper as a opener and fill the place with a all-rounder in the middle? Wouldn't that be more secured option than having 2 skilled batters? By this formula Indian team can bring Sanju Samson as a opener oweing to his current form in the IPL where he used to play on the number 3 position which is not that differ from opener. While Sanju has showed good grades when he opens or come up in the order.

3. Rishabh Pant

If India still wants a right-left combination and the wicket-keeper-opener formula; who's better than Rishabh Pant who was actually trained to be the opener prior. Even Pant used to open for his franchise, Delhi Capitals in the IPL and could give more secure opening option to his team. This will not only give India the right combination but also some explosive starts with both Rohit & Rishabh going out of the park from first bowl.

4. Virat Kohli

Nothing but just the best opening pair option India could get is Virat & Rohit going strong from the bowl 1. Besides the intent and the reputation this batters come with will just thrash the opponents before even innings start. This is not us brewing dreamy story but this has happened with England in 2021 when Rohit and Virat put fiery show when they opened putting a 94-runs partnership in just 9 overs.
