Next week, in New York’s Nassau County International Cricket Stadium (ICC), Team India will commence their 2024 ICC T20 World Cup journey by taking on Ireland.
India skipper Rohit Sharma had led the side to the ODI World Cup final in the previous year and he is looking forward to vanquishing Australia as well as kickstarting a new beginning in this mega event. The 36-year-old Rohit is determined to clinch an ICC trophy, an achievement that has eluded India since 2013.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni was leading Indian side when they won the inaugural edition of T20 World Cup back in 2007 after defeating Pakistan by five runs in the final which also happened to be India’s only title win in the tournament till date.
After winning it for once since 2007, they reached the finals again just once out of eight editions where they were beat by six wickets from Sri Lanka at finals played at Mirpur Stadium, Bangladesh during April 6th, 2014.
Hardik Pandya, India’s chief all-rounder posted a video of his training session on social media platform with only one comment.
