At India's T20 World Cup team selection, Harbhajan Singh takes a swipe

While sharing his thoughts on the T20 World Cup squad of team India, former spinner Harbhajan Singh said that team India is going to miss middle-order batter Rinku Singh, and including four spinners in the squad is a little too much.

The T20 World Cup is going to start on June 1 and will be played in venues in the USA and Caribbean until June 29. Rinku has not made it to the main squad but is included in the reserves. While speaking on Monday, Harbhajan said, "The World Cup team has been selected. The batting is good. I think we are one fast bowler short. One player that I think we will miss is Rinku Singh, because he is someone who can win the match single-handedly for us. He can chase down 60 runs in 20 balls. I think selecting four spinners is a bit too much. Three would have been enough. I wish Team India all the best and hope they bring the cup."

Bhaji further added, “I do not think we will ever play four spinners in a match. Ravindra Jadeja will play. Maybe Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal will play with him. Maybe we will field three spinners in a game. We will get to know the combo after seeing the conditions.”
