The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 tournament will be played in the United States and the West Indies from June 1 to June 29. Team India won the inaugural edition of the tournament and since then they failed to make a bid for the second title. The last time they close to winning the second title was back in 2014 but they lost to Sri Lanka in the showdown. Since then, Team India made earnest attempts to win the second title but they failed to do it despite having the strong squad.

Nevertheless, they do have all their bases covered going forward in the marquee event this time and will be looking forward to putting an end to ICC title drought. Meanwhile, the Board of Control for Cricket in India will announce the squad for the upcoming event. Although ICC set May 1, 2024 as the deadline for teams to announce their squads for the T20 World Cup, the teams will have time till May 25 to make changes to the original squad if need be.

There will be a toss-up between Rishabh Pant and Hardik Pandya for vice-captain: Reports

According to a report from Cricbuzz, either Rishabh Pant or Hardik Pandya will be preferred for the vice-captaincy role for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. The same report also suggests that Rishabh Pant holds an edge over Hardik Pandya for the role and it remains to be seen who will be Rohit Sharma’s deputy for the main event.

“Among other selection issues, the top order will consist of skipper Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, and Suryakumar Yadav. The middle order will feature Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, and Ravindra Jadeja. One or both of Shivam Dube and Rinku Singh will be there, along with either Sanju Samson or KL Rahul,” added the report.

As far as the pace bowling department is concerned, Jasprit Bumrah will be leading the pace attack alongside Mohammed Siraj and Arshdeep Singh.
