Rohit Sharma is the captain of Team India and should open the innings for the team in every match. Sharma failed to lead Team India in the ODI World Cup last year but is eyeing another try in the West Indies.
Yashasvi Jaiswal
Yashasvi Jaiswal should be the other opener as he showed excellent form in a recent IPL match by hitting a century. Jaiswal was a strong batsman in the T20I format and also showed wonderful form in all the T20I series he played.
Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli has shown wonderful form in IPL 2024. There is no other batsman who is the perfect choice at No. 3 for India than Kohli in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Kohli has topped the charts of top run-getters in the IPL and will be the key batsman for the Team India.

Suryakumar Yadav
Suryakumar Yadav can play in the middle order as he has shown his strength with the bat in a few matches of IPL 2024. Yadav has already hit 4 tons in the shortest format and will be a dangerous batsman for Team India.
Rishabh Pants (WK)
Rishabh pants should be the team’s wicketkeeper in the T20 World Cup 2024 as he has shown good form in IPL 2024 after his return. Pant can also play in the middle. He is a left-handed batsman and has more experience than Sanju Samson. Furthermore, the latter usually plays in the top order.
Hardik Pandya
Hardik Pandya should be selected as a pace all-rounder as Team India will need more pace players on seam-friendly and flat pitches in the Caribbean. He is also the team’s vice-captain. Although Shivam Dube has shown wonderful form in IPL 2024, Pandya has a lot of experience in international tournaments.
Ravindra Jadeja
Ravindra Jadeja will be a valuable addition to the playing XI as he is capable of bowling left-arm spins and smashing big shots down the order. Jadeja is an important member of the team in all three formats and has shown impressive form in IPL 2024.

Yuzvendra Chahal
Yuzvendra Chahal has shown brilliant form in IPL 2024 and should be part of the team in T20 World Cup 2024 as the team needs a right-arm spinner. He is a wicket bowler who can grab crucial wickets when the team needs it most.
Arshdeep Singh
Arshdeep Singh has been a great player for the team in the shortest format over the last two years and will be an important addition at left-back. The left-arm pacer has impressed with his consistent performance in T20Is.
Jasprit Bumrah
Jasprit Bumrah is in fabulous form after making his comeback to the national team after an injury. He impressed in the India vs England Test series as well as the IPL 2024. Bumrah will lead the team’s pace attack.
Mohammed Siraj
Mohammed Siraj should be the other pacer for Team India in the 2024 T20 World Cup as he will be a lethal pacer on foreign pitches. Siraj can attack the opposing teams with his powerful jump on Caribbean pitches.
