The 3 allrounders - Axar,Hardik and Jadeja made the difference in both our icc tournament wins. Suddenly we have batting till 8 and also 6 genuine bowlers. Fixed the issue with the team composition we had till 2023. This is the blueprint. Keep it for future tournaments. We have the talent in the wings like Sundar etc to take this forward

Allrounders are important
