Former India cricketer Gautam Gambhir has announced his top 7 players for the T20 World Cup, after which all the fans are surprised. Actually, there are no names like KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja in Gautam Gambhir’s team. At the same time, there are two such shocking names in his team who themselves probably do not believe that they will be in Team India’s playing XI for the T20 World Cup. Gautam Gambhir chose his top 7 players during commentary on Star Sports. In this, he has made Ishan Kishan an opener along with Rohit Sharma. He has kept KL Rahul out. Gautam Gambhir has argued that he wants to see right and left handed batsman opening and that is why he has kept KL Rahul out because captain Rohit Sharma will play.
Gautam Gambhir choosing Ishan Kishan over KL Rahul is really shocking as the right-handed batsman has an amazing T20 record. Also, there is no one in the Indian team at the moment to play big innings like him. On the other hand, he himself must have surprised this cricketer by giving a chance to Ishan Kishan. Because Ishan Kishan had said that he never even thinks of opening with KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma.
Shreyas Iyer-Jadeja also not in Gambhir’s playing XI

Gambhir has replaced Iyer with Deepak Hooda, who in addition to batting fast in the middle order, also bowls. Also his fielding is amazing. Ravindra Jadeja is also not there in Gautam Gambhir’s playing XI.
