A lot will depend on Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill will be the key in World Cup 2023: Harbhajan Singh.

The countdown has officially begun for the highly anticipated ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, set to take place in India in just three months’ time. This edition of the tournament holds particular significance as it marks the first occasion where India will serve as the exclusive host. The World Cup is scheduled to commence on October 5th.

As the host nation, the Indian cricket team, known as the Men in Blue, will face immense pressure to secure the prestigious trophy and put an end to their decade-long drought in ICC tournaments. With high expectations placed upon them, the Indian team will strive to capitalize on the home advantage and deliver an outstanding performance on the world stage.

Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has identified two key players who he believes will play crucial roles in India’s campaign for the World Cup. Singh, who was part of the victorious Indian squad in the 2011 World Cup, has highlighted Indian captain Rohit Sharma and the talented young batsman Shubman Gill as vital assets for the team. Both Sharma and Gill are expected to form a formidable opening partnership, setting the tone and providing a strong foundation for the team’s batting lineup.

With the tournament approaching rapidly, all eyes will be on India as they aim to reclaim the ICC Cricket World Cup and bring joy to their passionate cricket-loving nation.

Harbhajan Singh said “If I talk about India, it comes back to your opening partnership. A lot will depend on Rohit Sharma. Shubman Gill – I hope he is part of the team. It will be unfortunate if you don’t play him. I think Shubman Gill will be the key. He bats extremely well in Indian conditions,”.
