There is suspense regarding which player will do wicketkeeping for the Indian team in the ICC T20 World Cup. Team India has not just 1-2 but many options for them. Delhi Capitals captain Pant is also in good form. RCB captain Dinesh Karthik is in great form. Mumbai Indians' brilliant batsman Ishan Kishan is also performing well. Along with this, KL Rahul and Sanju Samson are also seen in good form. The answer to who will play the World Cup in this has not been found yet.
The team will be announced by the end of this month
Former BCCI President Sourav Ganguly has exposed this mystery. The former veteran player has surprised everyone with his statement regarding which player can be included as a wicketkeeper in the Indian team. It is noteworthy that BCCI can announce the Indian team's squad by the end of this month. In such a situation, this mystery will soon be solved officially.
Know what Sourav Ganguly said about Pant
Pant had a car accident two years ago while going from Delhi to Roorkee. After this incident, Pant could not play the last season of IPL. But this time he is back in action mode. This time in the first match he scored 18 runs in 13 balls. He lost a wicket by playing a wrong shot on a ball. After this match, Pant also scored a tremendous half-century. The wicketkeeper seems eager to join Team India. However, there are questions over whether he will return. Ganguly told BCCI, “It is important for Pant to play a few more matches so that he can get more opportunity to adapt to competitive cricket.” Ganguly also said that Rishabh Pant is completely fit and is in great form. He is definitely performing well, but he should be allowed to play a few more matches.
Pant is in competition with these players
Along with Rishabh Pant, the names of Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson, Jitesh Sharma and KL Rahul have been included as wicketkeepers for the T20 World Cup 2024. Among these players, the wicketkeeper who performs brilliantly in IPL 2024 may get a chance to make a place in Team India for the mega event. In such a situation, it remains to be seen which player will be the first choice of the selectors as wicketkeeper.
