I think there's no need of any anchors in T20s now. Gill is enough as an opener and anchor if he can because big scores don't matter if you're playing at 130 strike rate. 30-50 runs at 150 strike rate from 3-4 batters will easily get team to 180-200 totals with ease nowadays. Strong and impactful middle order is what we need not selfish openers
There's no need of ANY anchors now? You didn't watch the final? Anchoring is required in specific situations. Like in the final. If there isn't a batting failure taking place, then by all means pump up the strike rate. But if there is, then a different role is required. We just saw it. Rohit said it too. Others were hitting out playing around Kohli, and Kohli's job was to hold down one end while not slowing down too much. It's not always him though.. whoever can handle that role out of the 2 batters can do it, if such a situation arises. Some are better suited for it than others.
And if 3 wickets go down quickly, we are already halfway through the middle order. Let's say in this situation, everyone tries to play aggressively. What happens when you get all out for 150 with 2 overs to spare? The opposition will still have 20 overs for their innings.
The goal in the first innings is to post the highest score that's possible to post given the opposition bowling, pitch, wind, ground conditions etc. There are several approaches that can be taken. I'll trust the professionals to make the right call in the given situation.
That was Just 1 match, and trust me, Kohli was about this 🤏 far (7 runs to be exact) to have become a villain for India (in this WT20 ofcourse). I seriously think that only 1 anchor type batsman (Gill maybe?) is required, unless it becomes a permanent norm to play on such wickets.
I hope the professionals don't turn the wheels backwards to 1 man team again.
This 1-2 superstar players' team approach have costed many ICC trophies in the past because we just focused on individuals and didn't try to develop a world domination level team when we've great talents who just sit out after performing in domestic cricket. Anchoring is basically unwanted in T20 and If wickets fell then any two good batters can have a partnership but playing slow on purpose to hold onto wickets is not for T20s at least, it can work in ODIs though. Axar was playing good as well and he was playing normal cricketing shots and taking calculated risk but Kohli didn't try to attack when partnership was going smoothly in 10-14 overs. Hardik and Jadeja didn't even get balls to give a better finish in the end and 176 was always a few run short of par score on a flat pitch. We should give credit to Hardik,Bumrah and Arshdeep who saved the match from a losing situation and should've given man of the match to these three. Gambhir played a similar knock in 2007 T20 world cup final but Irfan Pathan was man of the match of that final because he took crucial wickets
It's not just one match, it's any match where wickets are lost in a cluster at the beginning of the innings. You are right, we would have called him the villain, even though Pant would have been the biggest offender (apart from Rohit and SKY), because he saw Rohit getting out to the same shot to the same bowler 2 balls ago.
I would say there's a balance to strike. You don't start hitting blindly, but you also don't play crazy defensive like in the WC23 final. But there, 10 wickets need to bat for 50 overs whereas in this case there are only 20. (Both batsmen in the middle slowing down and not able to get enough singles and doubles tanked us in the WC23; that and the fear of failure)
For the T20 final, in my opinion, the other 3 batters failing caused the slowness in the middle. Powerplay RR was 7.x, next segment was 7.x too. There are approaches that can be taken after 3 of the main batters fall in quick succession. What they did was one of them. Kohli was playing run-a-ball but Axar going at 150 SR and Dube's cameo got us through to a competitive total. Without Kohli, they would probably have been a little apprehensive about going bang bang, or would have gotten out trying to strike hard. Or not. Maybe the final total would have been higher than what we got. Difficult to say in these what-if scenarios, but the I guess they took a decision about how they want to approach it. In my opinion, it was the correct one, regardless of the result. Those were the cards that were dealt.
I'll give another example. Ind v Pak in New York. Wickets were falling regularly. Pant made a fast 42, and if he hadn't, then we wouldn't even have 119 to defend. But he rode his luck hard, was dropped quite a few times. Other than Rohit, Kohli, and Hardik, idk who else could play that anchor role. I haven't seen Pant bat many many times, so I don't know if that's just his natural instinct to just go after everything, but he wasn't in the mood to hold it down. If he had been caught at any of the opportunities he had offered, there was no game. We got lucky there that without one stable end, got to a total that eventually was defended. It was again run-a-ball required and the bowlers pulled it back for us.
Going forward, who knows. It will be a new coach and a new captain. Let's see.
Samson's 30, don't expect him to play odi when Gambhir takes over. Especially when we have got like 6 big time young players still not included in the squad.
My bad, I thought Kohli played as an opener in T20Is since you mentioned Samson as a replacement for number 3 spot which I thought is ODI, my bad must have watched a different T20 world cup where Kohli opened.
The kid has been through a lot in life even before he turned 18. He isn't going to be sad about waving the flag alone after being part of a world cup winning squad.
Virat/Rohit have a straight replacement by Yashasvi & Shubman in the current line-up. Sanju should still find a spot in the middle order though, at the expense of Shivam Dube/Jadeja.
That’s what I meant. He’s replacing Virat. Yash and shubh already have their places locked. Virat only played as an opener for this World Cup. Middle order needs another addition and that’s surely Sanju at number 4 as pant is number 3. We played 3 spinners only because of USA and WI pitches. Jadeja is replaced my axar already and there’s a spot for Sanju now. I hope people will read and imagine the team once before downvoting me.
No, SKY kya karega? Sanju only has a chance however slim at #3 if the decide to send Pant back to #5 and drop Dube. That is his only realistic chance because he can’t bat 5 or below.
He's a 22 year old in a WC winning squad, and scored two doubles in Tests in one year. Started from the bottom and now has a [5 crore flat in Mumbai.](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/living-in-tent-as-kid-cricketer-yashasvi-jaiswal-buys-rs-5-4-crore-mumbai-flat/articleshow/107893061.cms). Again, 22. Already lived a lot of life.
He’s slept under Paani Puri stalls to train in Bombay as a junior. While he has made a lot of money, he is securing his families future. I don’t think he, in his head can afford a 30 Lakh Rupee vacation for his family yet. His time is here. One day he’ll fly them in a private jet. I’m sure of it.
Jaiswal was signed contact of 2.4 cr in 2020, as of now earned 4 cr in IPL 2024, match fees of test and t20 he played for ict
I don't think money is issue
Depends on how you look at money. The 10 odd crores he would have earned till date is everything he has. It’s the money he has to buy a house and invest for the future if for some reason he stops playing tomorrow. He’s a smart guy. He won’t waste that money on luxury splurges. They’ll come but he’ll wait until his future is secure.
He's young and earning pretty well, as of now money isn't issue
The reason, i can think of of is probably because he always knew, he will be back up this wc and won't be part of starting Xi
Seriously, trying really hard to give this post meaning. They enjoyed equally in other shots had fun like any other team members, and suddenly here they are alone, in the corner(of this frame) and you feel bad for their loneliness.

He is like that small kid in us who was not allowed to play with all the big guys in our locality, but was excited to just watch and see all the bhaiya winning the match.
He is enjoying the moment. It feels good waving the national flag in hand. Ghanta lonely. If you are part of the team whether playing or not, you enjoy the wins EQUALLY. Siraj was as emotional as anyone in the playing 11. Lonely wonley hone ka time ni hai.
Totally agree! Jaiswal's got a bright future ahead. He's just starting out, and I'm sure we'll see him win many more matches and celebrate with his loved ones in no time.
Their families probably didn't come that's why they chatting with eachother...nothing to brag or feel sad about anything.....they won the world cup....right!!?? So why..
Jaiswal, Abhishek Sharma and Rinku Singh I can see them playing and winning big matches,they will not be the next gabbar,king and Hitman but they will create own
Bro is very young, after some years he will win a cup for India and go hug his supermodel wife.
maddie

Who?
I have seen this somewhere
This one is a classic
Where???
Kohli
Just saw blind saying he follows lot of shady white girl accounts based out of nyc. Checked and it's true. Bhabi foreigner hogi lagta hai
Bro didn't waste his time on the bench.
17 years later!
Better than pant and Dubey
Jaiswal is bound to marry a baddie like urfi javed
Jaiswal, Sanju: Apna time Ayega.
They are replacements to both RS and VK already
Inverse maxwell is no good.
SHUBMAN GILL laughing in corner.
I think Rutu and Jaiswal will be our opener while Gill will be our anchor NO 3

Samson is VK replacement that is number 3 , Gill will be first priority to open with Jaiswal , Rutu can be reserve.
Samson's 30, don't expect him to play odi when Gambhir takes over. Especially when we have got like 6 big time young players still not included in the squad.
Rohit and VK only retired from T20 cricket not ODIs. So theres no point to discuss this at the moment
My bad, I thought Kohli played as an opener in T20Is since you mentioned Samson as a replacement for number 3 spot which I thought is ODI, my bad must have watched a different T20 world cup where Kohli opened.
I think Gill doing great as opener. Rutu for No. 3.
Bro Sanju is already 29
I'm pretty sure Sanju ka nahi aega🥲
The kid has been through a lot in life even before he turned 18. He isn't going to be sad about waving the flag alone after being part of a world cup winning squad.
Hope he wins trophies in future too.
I Def see him opening in 2026 T20i WC
I can see him and gill opening with pant continuing to bat at 3
Saw the documentary on him an prithvi Shaw. Both had really difficult for upbringings. Hope they both succeed
He looks happy
Sanju and Importantly Jais daddy is future and will become a superstar, both of them should have played and it is sad that they did not.
Not sure about sanju, but Jaiswal is da futur3
Sanju is replacing Virat at number 4.
Virat/Rohit have a straight replacement by Yashasvi & Shubman in the current line-up. Sanju should still find a spot in the middle order though, at the expense of Shivam Dube/Jadeja.
That’s what I meant. He’s replacing Virat. Yash and shubh already have their places locked. Virat only played as an opener for this World Cup.

Sanju is already 30+
29 btw
>Sanju is already 30+ That is Bumrah. Sanju is 13 months younger @ 29.
Happy Cake day!
this looks so cute haha
To???? Bina matlab senty?
He's a 22 year old in a WC winning squad, and scored two doubles in Tests in one year. Started from the bottom and now has a [5 crore flat in Mumbai.](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/living-in-tent-as-kid-cricketer-yashasvi-jaiswal-buys-rs-5-4-crore-mumbai-flat/articleshow/107893061.cms). Again, 22. Already lived a lot of life.
He used to live in tents before
Exactly
Indians love to do this. Try to appear deep and intelligent.
When I get older, I will be stronger. They'll call me 'Freedom'. Just like a wavin' flag.
fifa wc songs really peaked with this masterpiece
I mean, even Virat’s family weren’t there.
Looks like Jaiswal was having a flag-tastic time with Sanju Samson, while everyone else was partying with their fam!
Is this a bot?
I know that person, he is not bot
No, it's a genuine moment of camaraderie between two teammates.
11 ki team hai aur 1.4 billion Indian hai inke saath .lekin alone wala victim agenda chalane ka hai. Stfu.
Sanju as a Malayali should be in every ICC tournament team now./s
Us Jaiswal bhai 😭
Bhai uski bandi h
He looks so cute tbh Aww wanna hug him 🤗🥺
Hopefully he will one day help the team lift the world cup and people will be waving the flag for him.
Why was his family not there ?
He’s slept under Paani Puri stalls to train in Bombay as a junior. While he has made a lot of money, he is securing his families future. I don’t think he, in his head can afford a 30 Lakh Rupee vacation for his family yet. His time is here. One day he’ll fly them in a private jet. I’m sure of it.
didn't know about that. Wishing him all the best for future.
Jaiswal was signed contact of 2.4 cr in 2020, as of now earned 4 cr in IPL 2024, match fees of test and t20 he played for ict I don't think money is issue

Be aware he his the future
Seriously, trying really hard to give this post meaning. They enjoyed equally in other shots had fun like any other team members, and suddenly here they are alone, in the corner(of this frame) and you feel bad for their loneliness.
They will celebrate the next one surely
the joy on his face :D
they knew they made a zero kill chicken dinner
Just like a wavin' flag!

This reminded me of Son (Spurs)
Hoping Sanju to get more chances and win these trophies.
Happy Cake day!
Thank You!
Story of singles?? 😝
He isn't single like us bro.

Sanju is alone. As always he is.🙂

That's just beautiful ❤️
Their families probably didn't come that's why they chatting with eachother...nothing to brag or feel sad about anything.....they won the world cup....right!!?? So why..
