What did Rohit Sharma say on team selection?
After the match against Nepal in the Asia Cup on Monday night, Rohit Sharma was asked questions about the World Cup team. When commentator Sanjay Manjrekar asked about the team, the Indian captain said, "When we came to play for the Asia Cup, we knew who would be in the 15-member team for the World Cup." We knew that everything would not be clear in two matches of the Asia Cup because we had to play only two matches before the team selection.
Samson, Krishna, and Tilak will be out
KL Rahul, who could not play in the first two matches of the Asia Cup, is certain to be selected for the World Cup. The BCCI medical team has given him the green signal. Wicketkeeper-batsman Sanju Samson, fast bowler Prasidh Krishna and young batsman Tilak Verma, who have been selected for the Asia Cup, may face disappointment. All three are likely to not be included in the World Cup squad.
Rahul had surgery
Rahul had undergone surgery on his right thigh and has been out of the field for the last three and a half months. While announcing the team for the Asia Cup, Agarkar had said in the press conference that Rahul was injured. For this reason, Sanju Samson was selected as the backup.
