Mohit Sharma, the seasoned Indian fast bowler, has found himself in the limelight once again, not just for his exceptional performances in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) but also for fervent calls from fans for his inclusion in India’s squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.
Consistent brilliance in the cash-rich league
Since his return to IPL action with the Gujarat Titans (GT) in 2023, Mohit has been a standout performer. The right-arm pacer, formerly with Chennai Super Kings (CSK), concluded the previous IPL season as the second-highest wic𝔍ket-taker, amassing 27 wickets in 14 matches. His impressive haul included two 4-wicket haul💟s and a remarkable 5-wicket haul.
In the current IPL season, Mohit has continued his stellar form, claiming 6 wickets in just 3 games for the Tita♕ns, placing him among the top wicket-takers yet again.
Match-winning contributions
In a recent match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Mohit showcased his match-winning prowess by claiming three crucial wickets, conceding only 25 runs. His stellar performance played a significant role in Gujarat’s commanding 7-wicket victory, earning him the well-deserved Player of the Match accolade.
Fans’ outpouring support
On social media platforms, fervent calls for Mohit’s inclusion in India’s T20 World Cup squad have been overwhelming. Fans from across the cricketing spectrum have highlighted Mohit’s exceptional form and match-winning capabilities, urging the BCCI and Indian selectors to consider him for the prestigious tournament. With the mega event set to unfold in the West Indies and USA, fans believe that Mohit’s experience, skill, and recent form make him an indispensable asset for India’s campaign.
Statistical reinforcement
Mohit’s efficacy, especially in the death overs (17-20), has been a focal point of discussion among fans and analysts alike. Since IPL 2023, he has scalped 17 wickets in the death overs, boasting an impressive average of 9.59, a strike rate of 7, and an economy rate of 8.15. These statistics underline his ability to deliver under pressure, making෴ him a formidable asset in the T20 format.

This may sound going backwards but Mohit Sharma is bowling really well and should be considered for T20 world cup. If pitches are going to be slow then Mohit is absolute beast in exploiting 🍎those conditions.
He has multiple slow ball options with va♚ried pace which upsets the…

India h🍰as invested a lot in Mukesh Kumar and Arshdeep Singh for the n🏅ext T20 World Cup.

— krishnamoorthy (@krishna99123)
Those 6 & 4 on the last two balls of IPL final would have broken many bowlers ♔but Mohit Sharma has come back stronger this season too, this tells me that he is mentally strong & I would take a bet on him for T20 World Cup than on many of these T20 frauds I🔴ndia is playing of late.

Btw even Ashish Nehra played in his last T20 World Cup at age of 37+ 🍌
— Uzumaki Firebulb (@FirebulbTweets)
If Mohit Sharma is to get a recall for Team India in the T20 World C🐬up…it would not be a problem for him to adapt as he has played a T20 & ODI World Cup before as well as✨ being a teammate of the 2 senior most players…I would say go for it…
