in 20Twenty Cricket, Best partnerships, India
The importance of partnerships can’t be neglected in any format of the game whether it is test, one day or twenty20. India became the first twenty20 champion because of the partnerships that they built. By contrast, Pakistan lost that final from India because no Pakistani player tried to build a partnership and at the end there were no wickets left to change the match result. The partnership builder for India is G Gambhir who rotates the strike and hits boundaries occasionally. Here is the list of the best partnerships in twenty20 for India.

Best Partnership for India in One Day

in Best partnerships, India, One day Cricket
Many of India’s greatest victories have been achieved because of the awesome partnerships of SACHIN, DRAVID and SEHWAG. These three players have an amazing understanding of the sport and always build healthy partnerships. If some team fails to build partnerships then it’s chances of victory are low. Bangladesh has good players who have good techniques and on their day can hit any bowler, but their problem is that they don’t build partnerships. Most of the time their team relies on individual performances.
