Following India's victory over Ranchi, India's new T20I captain, Rohit Sharma, spoke of guarding the players in the first XI, adding that those who did not get a chance would leave at the right time. When Venkatesh Iyer was handed his cap, it was thought to be a universal role, knocking down orders and giving India a sixth throw option. However, it was not until the last T20I that Iyer got the ball. He threw three overs, conceded 12 runs, and knocked out Adam Milne with his first international wicket.
"The plan is to keep him in as much mixing as we can," Rohit said after India's 3-0 win over Kolkata on Sunday (November 22). "At the same time, we need to give him a role in where he is going to beat. function.
"Today he always looked determined. He was clear in his mind and could do whatever he wanted to do. He saw his throwing ability. He looked bright in us. see if he can move us. It's only a few days. he has only played three games and he doesn't have a chance to play but going forward we will look after him.
"When you play matches as a team, you have to try many things and look for many options. The Indian team also explores different combinations, different types to choose from. Among the top five strikers right now, only Surya and Shreyas. In the meantime, our bowling alley, if you keep throwing the way we play, needs the sixth and seventh bowling options. If your five bowlers do the job you don't need any other options. But the captain is a good pillow if you have a sixth and seventh option. "
Rohit also explained in detail the importance of persistence with the current set of players in the XI to give them safety before bringing in new players.
"When you play you have to put some marks on the boxes and we try to do that. We try to create a healthy atmosphere in the team, we try to give the players safety so they can go out and play without fear," he said.
"At the first meeting we had, we made it very clear to all the players that if you try to do something for the team, that action will not be seen. take a chance if it comes out well otherwise, we will still support you because doing for the team whatever anyone does for the team is a good sign you always have to put that thought back and that is what we will do here and always be consistent to do that as much as possible.
"With the talent, we have in India, it's not easy, you have to see a lot of options. Most of the guys sitting outside have also done very well. He tries to include everyone in the squad but only 11 can play. So it's not easy. the wicked go forth and bear not the burden.
