Gambhir Wants Pant In Place of Karthik In India Team For Australia T20I Series
Former India cricketer Gautam Gambhir wants the hosts to start off the T20I series against Australia with left-handed wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant in the playing eleven, instead of veteran Dinesh Karthik. In Asia Cup 2022, India oscillated between picking Karthik, a specialist finisher, and Pant, a left-hander who can bat anywhere from top to middle order.
With both named in India's squad for the T20Is against Australia, South Africa and the T20 World Cup, it gives captain Rohit Sharma and head coach Rahul Dravid ample time to see who amongst Karthik and Pant can be a better fit for the Indian team.
