Pant had a solo practice session at his favorite GABBA ground. This was the wicketkeeper-batter’s last chance in the warm-up game against New Zealand to stake a claim in India’s playing XI against Pakistan. The match though was abandoned without a ball being bowled. Now, team India has reached Melbourne, and it will be playing its first match against Pakistan on Sunday (October 23).
IND vs PAK Live: Will Rishabh Pant get the nod ahead of Dinesh Karthik in the playing XI?
- It is not guaranteed that Pant will be selected in the team as the first-choice wicketkeeper batter.
- In recent times, Dinesh Karthik has edged Pant to be the number one wicketkeeper-batter.
- The Southpaw was not even in India’s playing XI in the warm-up game against Australia.
- Before that, the 25-year-old also failed to cross 30 in India’s two unofficial warm-up games against Western Australia.
- It remains to be seen if Pant gets a nod as solely as batter or wicketkeeper-batter against Pakistan.
