The T20 World Cup is all set to start on 2nd of June, and the debate around what could be India's best playing XI in the marquee even is slowing catching fire. Now, in the official launch of the 'Legends Intercontinental T-20 Cricket League', Graeme Swann the former English spinner has come up with an interesting opinion regarding India's combination while talking to OneCricket's representative at the event.

Graeme Swann said that India have great resources in the spin department and are spoiled for choices. However, he added that India should play both Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav together as the conditions in Caribbean and USA are likely to assist spinners. He also stated that Ravindra Jadeja can bat at any position and even can be used at number 3, and felt that India are very lucky to have him in their arsenal.


"Of course you have got embarrassment in the riches when it comes to the spin department, but I would be picking Chahal and Kuldeep without a doubt to play together. Jadeja can bat at 3, Jadeja can bat anywhere, he can fit into any team. Honestly, you don't know how lucky you all are."

India will kickstart their T20 World Cup campaign on 5th of June against Ireland and will play their arch-rivals Pakistan on 9th of June at New York.
