What Ajit Agarkar-led BCCI selectors will be looking for in IPL 2024 for India's T20 World Cup selection

Hindustan Times  

When India's fixture for the T20 World Cup preparation was revealed, the tally of 11 T20I matches across three series - against Australia, South Africa and Afghanistan, raised concerns if it was enough for the selectors to narrow down on the final 15 for the ICC event in June, especially when some of the veterans almost or entirely skipped the fixtures citing rest following the arduous ODI World Cup or staying fit for the long England Test series. How IPL 2024 will shape India's T20 World Cup squad Who are the certainties? However, the argument against Kohli in T20s has always been his strike rate, especially against spinners and in middle overs Since IPL 2020, among 20 batters who faced a minimum of 500 deliveries in the middle overs, Kohli's strike rate of 116.27 is the lowest. In fact, among the 42 batters who have faced more than 200 deliveries against the variety in the last four IPL seasons, Kohli's strike rate of 108.2 is the second-lowest.
