India's journey towards the T20 World Cup has commenced with the first batch of players arriving in the United States. Key members such as Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Suryakumar Yadav, and Rishabh Pant have already begun training sessions, indicating the team's dedication to performing well in the upcoming tournament.
Meanwhile, senior batter Virat Kohli is yet to join the team due to a scheduled visa appointment. The BCCI has reportedly arranged for his travel to the USA on May 30th, which may result in him missing India's warm-up match against Bangladesh.
The Men in Blue will kick off their T20 World Cup campaign on June 5th against Ireland at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. They will then face their arch-rivals Pakistan on June 9th, followed by matches against tournament co-hosts USA and Canada. The team's performance in the group stage will determine their progression to the knockout rounds and ultimately their chances of lifting the coveted trophy.
