There may be some time left before India take on England in the T20 World Cup 2022 semi-final game in Adelaide but the mind games have already begun.

Former England captain Nasser Hussain on Wednesday stated that the duo of Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul play in an "old-fashioned" way.

In his column for Daily Mail, he wrote that the duo has underperformed in world tournaments. "Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul do play in a slightly old-fashioned way in the first few overs but that has suited India in this tournament because the ball has moved around at the start. India need to be more dynamic if they are going to win World Cups and that is where Suryakumar Yadav has been so important," added Hussain.

While Rahul has scored 123 runs in 5 outings so far, his opening partner Rohit has had a disastrous tournament and has only managed 89 runs in as many outings.
