Rotation policy in Indian cricket team makes the team better.
For
- Rotation policy allows the team management to decide the best combination of the team which would fare well in some prestigious tournaments.
- It also gives chances to emerging youngsters to showcase their talent on the big stage.
- It gives the elder and more experienced players their duly deserved rest.
- It is very important to give exposure to certain talented players and that is what rotation policy makes possible.
- It helps BCCI to map out the future of Indian cricket, and rotating players in different matches and tournaments gives them the perfect platform to do so.
- It tests the bench strength which should be ready under any circumstances.
- It would also ensure the stars or the more experienced lot to stay fit for major tournaments like, world cup, by preventing them from exposing themselves to on field injuries.
Against
- It breaks the momentum of the team. For Example, if the team is performing well and is consistent then it doesn’t make sense to break that stability by rotating players.
- Rotation is a good thing but it should not happen at the cost of team’s interest.
- The team should not be altered during its winning ways i.e. if a certain individual is at top of his game then he shouldn’t be dropped rather should be given a longer run.
- It is a very big risk to “rest” players for certain matches and then bring them back cold for some other matches.
