Robin Uthappa Shardul Thakur World Cup Selection: Team India is ready for the World Cup. The final squad has been decided with the announcement of dropping Axar Patel and including Ashwin in the team. However, the Indian team is not less worried because the form of some players is going bad. Shardul Thakur is one of them. Former Indian team batsman Robin Uthappa believes that Shardul Thakur can be a matter of ‘concern’ for Team India in the World Cup.
Need to focus on stopping runs
Uthappa said that Shardul is a wicket-taking bowler, but his economy is likely to be high in the World Cup. He said that even though Shardul is adept at taking wickets, he needs to focus on stopping runs. He said, Shardul will be a big asset for India in the World Cup as the team management can choose him in place of Mohammed Siraj or Mohammed Shami due to his better batting skills. Let us tell you that both the players used to play together in IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings.

Shardul Thakur can be a matter of concern for Team India
Uthappa said on YouTube channel- Shardul Thakur can be a matter of concern for Team India. He takes wickets and is a high quality bowler, but one thing about him is that he gives away a lot of runs. He can prove to be very expensive on Indian pitches. This is something they have to pay attention to. He said- In CSK we fondly called him Golden Arm. I am sure his role will be exactly the same for the Indian team. Uthappa also said that with his experience in India, Ashwin is going to be a very dangerous bowler. From not being selected in the World Cup team to defeating the batsmen in the Australia series, Ashwin has performed very well.
