Fans on Twitter wanted to have Bhuvneshwar Kumar for the World Cup. But the selectors have picked him to represent the team in the Hong Kong Sixes.
Pakistan Fears
🚨 Team India have selected a strong squad for the Hong kong Sixes 2026 - Looks like the fear of Pakistan winning the tournament again is still there. 🇵🇰🏆 - Maybe they don’t want Pakistan to lift the trophy once again, so India decided to bring their strongest team! IS PAKISTAN ALREADY LIVING RENT-FREE?

Last time Pakistan was able to win the tournament. But this time after taking a look at the Indian team, even they would be thinking how to defend the title.
Not Uncapped
So Bhuvi and Krunal will not be uncapped now?😭

Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Krunal Pandya are currently being seen as uncapped players. But how will RCB retain them if they have made their return to the Indian team.

It can be said that India didn't just announce a team for the Hong Kong Sixes. They have literally announced an all IPL stars team for the tournament.
