Umesh Yadav, an Indian fast bowler, said it is MS Dhoni who is to decide on whether to come back or not. Dhoni, who turned 39, has not been cricketing since the World Cup 2019, and his return has not confirmed. He is scheduled to join Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, which delayed because of COVID-19 in India.
The Jharkhand born has made clear to his friends and former teammates the decision to retire if reports are to be believed. In picking the right Indian T20I eleven, Umesh has expressed his view. If Dhoni doesn’t play, he chose the Rishabh Pant as a wicketkeeper.
It’s MS Dhoni’s choice, says Yadav
Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, and Shreyas Iyer are the batsmen of my T20 XI. Then you have MS Dhoni Bhai. Abhi ka bol sakte hai, unki Marji rahegi toh vo khelenge [we don’t mean anything now. If MS Dhoni wants to play for India, he’s going to practice]. “If MS Dhoni Bhai doesn’t play, Rishabh Pant,” Umesh said on Instagram Live.
Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal never played the Blue men’s T20I together. Yadav thought that the pair is one of the best duos and therefore selected both the wrist spinners. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah are the key selections in the pace section. For the third seamer, Yadav said that Deepak Chahar’s and Mohammed Shami’s would be a hard competition.
“The Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal spinners.The fast bowlers Bumrah and Bhuvi and it is going to be a tough battle between Shami and Deepak Chahar for the third place. I do not accept that for that position, I am in contention, “added the speedster.
Yadav found it hard to break into the Indian team last year. However, Jasprit Bumrah’s injury to South Africa before the home series opened the door to him. He, along with Shami and Ishant Sharma, ruffled a lot of feathers in the test cricket. The 32-year-old has yet to win his spot back in the ODI and T20I team.
