Shubman Gill will sit out in Champions Trophy, this batsman will open with Rohit, Sehwag predicted

Cricket News Desk. Team India is going to be announced soon for the Champions Trophy. It is believed that the captaincy of the team will remain in the hands of Rohit Sharma for the time being. Hitman will also be seen playing the role of opening batsman. However, the big question is who will be Rohit's opening partner. Shubhman Gill's name is leading in this race. However, former Indian batsman Virender Sehwag has a completely different opinion. Veeru says that Yashasvi Jaiswal should open the innings with Rohit in the Champions Trophy.

make a successful start to the innings
While talking to a YouTube channel, Sehwag talked about giving Yashasvi a chance as an opener in the Champions Trophy. He said, “My advice to the selectors is that Yashasvi should be given a chance in the 50-over format.” Considering the way he bats in T20 and Test, the ODI format will suit Yashasvi very well. Jaiswal should be a part of India's ODI team at any cost. Yashasvi's performance in the Border-Gavaskar series played on Australian soil was amazing. Yashasvi played a brilliant inning of 161 runs in the second innings of the Perth Test. At the same time, the opening batsman scored half-centuries in both the innings of the Melbourne Test.

Yashasvi is excited about his ODI debut.
Yashasvi Jaiswal is still waiting to make his debut in ODI cricket. Yashasvi has played a total of 19 Test and 23 T20 matches for India so far. In 36 Test innings, the opening batsman has scored 1798 runs at an average of 52.88 and during this period he has also scored 4 centuries. In T20 International cricket, Yashasvi has scored 723 runs in 22 innings at a strike rate of 164. He has also scored one century and 5 half-centuries in the shortest format of cricket.

Didn't get a chance in T20 series
Yashasvi Jaiswal has not been selected in the Indian team for the five-match T20 series against England. After his brilliant performance in Australia, it was believed that Yashasvi might get a chance to showcase his talent in T-20 also. However, he has not been given a chance in the T20 series. Now it will be interesting to see whether Yashasvi gets a chance for the ODI series and Champions Trophy or not.
