Team India’s playing XI combination for the T20 World Cup is almost certain. Only a couple of places in the Rohit Sharma-led Indian team are still uncertain.
Both the wicket keeper and a fast bowler slot are still undecided. While there was a debate over who should open between Kohli and Rahul, captain Rohit made it clear that Rahul is the primary opener.

In this case, there is a discussion about who is between Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik. Dinesh Karthik is a match-winner, some ex-players say Dinesh Karthik should be the one to play because he is a good finisher; There is still doubt about this as some former players are also commenting that he is the future.
In this case, Captain Rohit Sharma spoke about this after winning the T20 series against Aussies and said that before the T20 World Cup, both Rishabh and Dinesh Karthik should play enough matches. Dinesh Karthik needs a bit more playing time. He has bowled only 3 balls in the last 2 matches of the Aussies series. My thought is to follow the batting order played in this Aussie series, said Rohit. According to that, chances are high for Dinesh Karthik.
