India Squad Announcement For T20 World Cup 2026 Live: India’s involvement in the T20 World Cup 2026, which will be co hosted by India and Sri Lanka, will see them as the current champions and the most favored side for the next trophy because of their marvelous performance in the shortest format for the past two years. The Indian team has won all T20I series and tournaments since August 2023, which is an indicator of their very strong team in terms of depth, balance, and consistency. The Board of Control for Cricket in India is expected to announce a probable player list for the World Cup, and a significant number of world class players will be from India.The foundation of India’s World Cup squad appears to be rather stable with only a few periphery positions left for discussion. Forming a 15 player squad is the most difficult task for the management, as it involves dropping many top players, even if their performances are outstanding. Most of the first choice players and the entire squad are more or less already decided, but the choice of backup batsmen, reserve all rounders, and additional bowlers will be done very carefully and will be under scrutiny. These close decisions could very well turn out to be the ones that lead to the composition of the World Cup squad. This is one of the major reasons that the T20I series with New Zealand of five matches will be very important since it is India’s last practice before the World Cup. Event starts from 1:30 PM IST.
“Post T20 WC, when I went to Sri Lanka, when I was appointed captain, Gill played well. So, it’s not about form, it’s about combination. He’s a terrific player, and it’s just that we are in a situation where we need an extra player for our combination and that is why he’s been excluded for now,”- SKY
