Results Will be Same If You Go With Same Players And Mentality in Next T20 World Cup: Virender Sehwag

Legendary India opener Virender Sehwag advised the team management should make changes to their T20I set-up to succeed in the next T20 World Cup. Sehwag, who played a pivotal role in India’s triumph at inaugural T20 WC in 2007, suggested that there is nothing wrong with the thinking process but they have to make changes to the squad.

“Look, I don’t want changes in the thinking process or anything else but I do wish for changes in the team. In the next World Cup, you shouldn’t see some faces again.”

“In 2007 a similar pattern was adopted. Those who were playing from so many years didn’t go there (in South Africa). And young players went and there was no hope from them,” Sehwag said.

“When India plays the next T20 World Cup, we would want nobody to have any hopes that this team can win but this will be the team for future. If you think about the future today, then you can prepare the team by then. You have two years to examine and there are some senior players whose performances are not up to the mark and they might not play the next World Cup,” he added.
