Team India is facing criticism from the cricket world for the humiliating loss against England in the semifinal of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022. After a couple of wins in the early games of the group stage, India started losing its momentum and the result was a shameful defeat against the English team.
The latest to join the list of critics is former Indian opener Virender Sehwag and this time the player is too harsh with his words. Sehwag is not happy with the senior players and said that he does not want to see some faces in this team in the next T20 World Cup happening in 2024. While having a conversation with Cricbuzz said,” I won’t talk about mindset and all but I would want to see personnel changes. I don’t want to see certain faces in the next World Cup. It happened in the 2007 T20 World Cup also. The stalwarts playing for all these years did not go to that World Cup. A bunch of youngsters went and nobody had any expectations from them and I would want to see a similar sort of team picked for the next T20 World Cup, nobody will expect them to win but that team will be for the future.”
However, the former Indian opener did not name any player but it is utterly clear that Sehwag is talking about the senior players who are above 30 in this team.

He further added, “If you start thinking about your future now then only you’ll be able to put together a team in two years. I would not want to see some non-performing seniors in the next World Cup. I hope the selectors will make such calls. But the problem is will these selectors remain till the next World Cup? There will be a selection panel, new management, and a new approach so will they make the changes? But one thing is for sure if they go into the next World Cup with the same team and the same approach then the results will also be the same,” he added.
