"Unfortunately, We Won't...": Rahul Dravid's Honest Admission On T20 World Cup Squad

The three-match series against Afghanistan, which India won 3-0, was India's last T20 assignment ahead of the World Cup.

India head coach Rahul Dravid was a pleased man after the 3-0 series win over Afghanistan as few fringe players performed well to give the team more options for the T20 World Cup in June. India played 11 T20s after the ODI World Cup last year and the thinktank was able to have a closer look at some contenders such as Jitesh Sharma and Shivam Dube after frontline players were given a rest. Dravid was quite chuffed at their efforts.

“We've had different people play after the last ODI World Cup for a variety of reasons. But I think it's just nice to see that there are some options (ahead of the World Cup) who have put their hand up, and certainly shown that they've got skills to address.

"Some areas we might need some addressing in, and we were thinking about it,” Dravid said in his post-match press conference.

The only concern for Dravid was the lack of team-time ahead of the showpiece to be held in the West Indies and the USA.
