Ex-India Coach Leaves Out Abhishek Sharma, Names These 3 Players As 'Extremely Critical' For India

In a recent statement, former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar highlighted the urgent need for strategic player selection ahead of upcoming matches. He expressed concerns over Abhishek Sharma's performance, noting that the current number one T20I batter has struggled to score in his last three innings. As a result, Bangar emphasized that Ishan Kishan is now viewed as 'player number one' for the Indian side. This shift in focus reflects the team's ongoing efforts to bolster its batting lineup and ensure consistent performance, especially during crucial encounters. The commentary underscores the competitive nature of T20 cricket, where player form can significantly influence team dynamics. With Sharma's recent struggles, the Indian selection committee faces critical decisions as they aim to optimize their roster for future challenges.
