Chopra also drew comparisons with India’s previous T20 World Cup squad from the 2022 edition. He criticized the decision of senior players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to stay away from the T20 format between the last ICC tournament and December 2023, as they focused on preparations for the ODI World Cup.
“Since the end of the last T20 World Cup in 2022, we have been playing with almost the same XI and the same batting order. So, what have we changed? And the roles that have changed, none were informed about it. It’s not ideal. And it is because none of the senior players played since the last World Cup,” Chopra said.
“I strongly feel we lack proper preparation. We are still trying to address it. We do have individual brilliance, but what happened last time was that we created a scene around the opening position. Between the World Cup in the UAE and Australia, we tried so many options for the opening role, including Suryakumar Yadav. But eventually, we opened with Rohit and Rahul, Kohli at 3…absolutely no use. That came back to haunt us. It’s an early warning, but we haven’t prepared well,” Chopra elaborated.
