The T20 World Cup is starting from October 17 in the United Arab Emirates and Oman, in which India are the strong contenders to win the title.
Prasad told PTI, “It is a good team but I think they are really less of a fast bowler… in the interview.
The 46-year-old explained, “If we had played more matches in Sharjah, it was fine, but there could have been a fast bowler (there) and more importantly, if Hardik doesn’t bowl, I think it will be a bit cause for concern.”

He said in surprise, “… (it is) a bit surprising that, or I don’t know if he is being instructed not to bowl or he is being protected to bowl only in the World Cup.” ”
“We don’t really know, but in an ideal scenario, with Hardik being picked as an all-rounder, I would love to see him bowl.
“I don’t know exactly what the thought process is because the selectors should know that, or the board should know that, but Hardik, if he doesn’t bowl then there will be very little, I mean, a little bit of the balance of the team. Will happen,” said Prasad, who played 6 Tests and 17 ODIs.

“Maybe the selectors would have gone with his form in mind, unfortunately he was not among the wickets in the last few months.
