Gill- Avesh will be released from the team, why are Rinku- Khalil being stopped? Understand

New Delhi. With three consecutive wins, the Indian cricket team has reached the Super 8 of the T20 World Cup 2024. India has to face Canada in its last league match on Saturday. This match will be played in Lauderhill, Florida. After the last league match of Team India, opener Shubman Gill and fast bowler Avesh Khan will be released from the team. Both the players were with the team as reserve players. The BCCI had also selected 4 reserve players along with the 15-member squad for the T20 World Cup, which included Gill and Avesh Khan along with Rinku Singh and Khalil Ahmed.

It is understood that the team management does not feel the need to take four standbys in the Super Eight stage. Therefore, only Rinku Singh and left-arm fast medium Khaleel Ahmed will be with the team during the Caribbean leg. A senior BCCI source, privy to the development, told PTI-Bhasha on the condition of anonymity, “Shubman Gill and Avesh Khan were to stay in the US only till the group league stage. This was already decided. So after the match against Ireland, they will be released from the team.”

Rohit-Virat’s alternatives are with the successful Team India
The logic behind leaving Shubman Gill and Avesh Khan out of the team is very simple. If captain Rohit Sharma or star batsman Virat Kohli get injured, the team has the option of Yashasvi Jaiswal, so there is no need for a fourth opener. Gill did not even practice batting much in New York while Rinku spent a lot of time in net sessions. Rinku has the ability to replace any player in the middle order.

With the presence of Pandya-Dubey, the team does not need Avesh Khan
The team management believes that due to the presence of Hardik Pandya and Shivam Dubey along with three fast bowlers, there is no need for fast bowler Avesh Khan. Khalil Ahmed will be an option to deal with such a situation.
