The Indian cricket team, right now, has the right kind of headache. The fact that the selectors can field two or even three squads at once is a testament to the kind of depth and reserves the country boasts of.
Although the team is making massive strides every match, the fact remains that the transition period isn’t far as Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are clearly towards the end of their careers, at least in the limited-overs set-up. Don’t be surprised if their journey from the 2023 ODI World Cup to the 2024 T20 World Cup turns out to be their last dance, their swansong.
Their impending retirement from the game warrants a question – Is Team India ready for a life without Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. From the looks of it, the team has plenty of options, as Shubman Gill, Prithvi Shaw, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shreyas Iyer, Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson and probably many more are raring to get hold of the brass ring and take it to places it has never been.
