Hopefully Indian National Team will understand that SKY, Hardik are past their prime, and they should be aptly replaced, otherwise they will give next T20 WC to some other team... T20 team should be always refreshed quickly, every 2 years half of the team should be changed... Though Sanju looks ominous at the moment, I expect him to fade as the next WC approaches (He unfortunately missed 1 or 2 world cups prior). Just like SKY played an extra WC (though he captained and we won)... Otherwise we won't see bright players like Priyansh Arya, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, etc, not making their debuts at the right time and getting wasted! Even SKY made the national team tad late...

Hardik has been a clutch player for India since his debut. He has always performed under pressure in ICC tournaments. Now been part of 3 ICC Tournament winning teams.
Hardik is not past his prime, most of the Indian players have given their 200% since T20 World Cup preparation began in November 2025. Non-stop cricket has taken its toll & most players from the World Champion side are not pushing hard in these IPL league games which hardly matter. Most Indian players are now targeting 2027 ODI World Cup which should be our primary focus apart from winning the Gavaskar Border Trophy early next year.
Arya, Suryavanshi, Mhatre can get in the side after we are done winning Olympics 2028.
