With the T20 World Cup just two months away in February 2026, selection is no longer about experimentation — it’s about execution.
In this special episode of Serving a Six Appeal, I break down India’s T20 World Cup 2026 plan in full:
• The core playing XI
• The complete 15-man squad
• How pitch conditions change the combination
• And why one major name misses out altogether
I also explain why late changes before a World Cup rarely work — and what India must do immediately after the tournament ends.
The episode finishes with a clear vision for the post-2026 T20 reset, including the next-cycle XI
This isn’t about reputation.
It’s about roles, balance, conditions — and timing.
