Mumbai: Fans are waiting to know who will be in the Indian squad for the ODI World Cup in India this year. The World Cup squad has to be submitted to the ICC before the 5th of next month. Before this, the main concern is whether KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer and Jasprit Bumrah will return free from injury. Although Bumrah has been selected as the captain of the Indian team for the T20 series once morest Ireland starting on the 18th of this month, we can understand whether Bumrah has regained his fitness to play ODI cricket only if he plays in the Asia Cup.
Shreyas and Rahul’s inclusion in the Asia Cup squad is in doubt as the National Cricket Academy’s medical team has assessed that they have resumed batting practice but have not recovered their fitness to play ODI cricket. In this situation, former Indian player Mohammad Kaif is openly saying who will be the crucial player for India in the World Cup.
Kaif said that Jasprit Bumrah will be a crucial player for India if he regains his athleticism. Whether Bumrah has regained his athleticism will be known only when he plays in the Asia Cup. I am looking forward to see Bumrah bowl in Ireland T20. India will be a strong team in the World Cup if Bumrah returns to full health, Kaif told the media while attending a book launch event in Delhi.

ODI cricket is a different format. We beat Pakistan in the T20 World Cup held in Australia last year, but it may not be easy in ODIs. India has the best record once morest Pakistan in ICC tournaments. However, the current Indian team cannot be said to be strong as crucial players are out due to injuries. Players like KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant are out with injuries.
The most critical of these is Bumrah’s injury. Without Bumrah for the World Cup, India will struggle. Because we don’t have a back up bowler for Bumrak. Therefore, if Bumrah does not play, India may lose the World Cup itself. Kaif also said that India has many problems to solve before the World Cup.
