India's predicted XI for World T20 in 2020

The ODI World Cup is going to take place in England next year. And one year after that, the T20 World Cup will take place in Australia in 2020 from October 18 to September 15. Currently, the qualification tournament is going on for the World Cup.

Thanks to the Indian Premier League which takes place every summer, a lot of players keep coming up and nurtured for the T20 format. There are many players who break into the Indian team after playing in the IPL.

So let's take a look at India's predicted XI for the World T20 in 2020.

KL Rahul

KL Rahul was the second highest run-scorer in the IPL this year for his new team - the Kings XI Punjab. He was the most consistent batsman in the team and single-handedly took them to many victories.

He scored the fastest half-century during the beginning of the tournament as well. He keeps finding himself in and out of the national team but he could soon cement his place into the side for good, as an opening batsman.

Rishabh Pant

Rishabh Pant

The young wicketkeeper-batsman made his Test debut against England recently. He already made his T20I debut against the same team at the beginning of the year. However, he did not get to do much.

The Indian team should look to make him open the batting. He could give the side a blistering start and take them to a big score. MS Dhoni's place in the team in this format might not be sure hence, Pant could be the perfect replacement behind the stumps as well.

Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli

The Indian cricket team captain will probably continue to lead the side in 2020 as well. He is one of the world's best batsman if not the best.

He has dominated in the T20 format as well and could continue to do so for many years to come. He will look to guide India to their first World T20 in 13 years.

Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer has consistently performed well in the domestic circuit in all formats of the game. He could be perfect at the no. 4 slot for India for many years to come.

Iyer has led the Delhi Daredevils and could even take over from Kohli as the captain of the side in the future.

Krunal Pandya

Krunal Pandya

The elder Pandya brother has always played extremely well in the IPL but has not yet got a chance to play for the national side.

With the way he is performing for the Mumbai Indians and in the domestic circuit, he could soon get a chance to make his debut.

Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya

The 24-year-old all-rounder has become an indispensable part of the Indian side, both with the ball and the bat.

He can score big runs with the bat lower down the order and pick up wickets at regular intervals as well.

Washington Sundar

Washington Sundar

The 17-year-old all-rounder has played a few T20Is for India already and has performed quite well. He can contribute with the bat by scoring a few big runs and contribute with the ball as well with his finger spin.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

He is currently injured but will soon make a comeback to the Indian team. He is one of the best death bowlers there is and could lead the Indian pace attack in the World T20 in 2020.

Shardul Thakur

Shardul Thakur

Shardul Thakur has played a few T20Is and ODIs for India and has performed decently. He has been in great form in the IPL and will look to translate that success to national team success as well.

He could even contribute a few runs with the bat as well.

Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Bumrah is one of the world's best death bowlers, especially in the T20 format. He will surely continue to play for India for a long time and lead the attack as well.

Yuzvendra Chahal

Yuzvendra Chahal

Yuzvendra Chahal, the leg-spinner, is one of the best spinners in the world in the T20 format. He can trouble the batsmen with his leg spin and googlies as well.
