Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) named the 15-man squad for India for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024, set to take place in the United States of America and the Caribbean in the month of June this year. Rohit Sharma is set to lead the Indian cricket team, but the exclusion of players like Rinku Singh and KL Rahul from the squad for the marquee tournament has sparked significant discussion among fans on social media.
Hardik Pandya is set to be the deputy to Rohit Sharma as the BCCI named him as the vice-captain of the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup 2024. The squad also sees Rishabh Pant back to the international cricket after a horrific accident laid him off cricket for more than a year. Sanju Samson and Shivam Dube are the notable inclusions in the squad. Meanwhile, the exclusion of Rinku Singh and KL Rahul has incited fair deal of emotions on social media from the cricket fans.
