News about Rohit sharma – Rishabh Pant – Dinesh Karthik Tamil News: The 8th T20 World Cup cricket matches will be held in Australia from October 16 to November 13. A total of 16 countries will participate in this series, the current champions Australia, India, England, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh will play directly in the Super 12 round.
Dinesh Karthik vs Rishabh Pant
Two wicketkeeper-batsmen, Dinesh Karthik and Rishabh Pant, have been included in the 15-man Indian squad for this World Cup series. In this, Pant has been a key player in all formats of the Indian team since last year. At the same time, Dinesh Karthik made a re-entry into the Indian team with his quality performance for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the last Indian Premier League.
In the recently concluded Asia Cup, Dinesh Karthik replaced Pant in the playing XI for the opening match against Pakistan. However, Bundy was given a chance in subsequent games. In particular, he was given opportunities in the Super 4 matches against Pakistan and Sri Lanka. But, he didn’t make good use of that opportunity. Meanwhile, Dinesh Karthik was benched for both the games. Later, the two played together in the match against Afghanistan. Bunt was the wicket keeper in that match.
Currently, the Indian team is fielding with the same World Cup team in the series against Australia and South African teams who are playing at home. In the T-20 series against Australia which ended yesterday, Dinesh Karthik was given opportunities in the first game, Dinesh Karthik – Rishabh Pant in the 2nd game and only Dinesh Karthik in the 3rd game. In this, while Dinesh Karthik came in to bat in all the 3 games, he was not given a chance in the 2nd game where Bunt was included.
While competition between two players for one place is the norm in Indian cricket, the competition between these players is seen as something a little different. Although both the players have been offered alternate opportunities by the Indian team management, there is constant questioning and public debate as to which player will be given a permanent place in major series like the World Cup.
Who has a place in the playing eleven?
In this case, after India won the three-match series against Australia on Sunday, Captain Rohit Sharma, speaking at the post-match press conference, mentioned the chances of the Indian team in the two-match World Cup.
“I wanted these two to play more games before the World Cup. When we went to the Asia Cup these two were on the field to play all the games.
But I feel Dinesh needs some more playing time. He rarely batted in this series. Three balls may be played. That time is not enough.
Punt also needs playing time. But seeing how this series has been, it’s important that I stick to that consistent batting line-up.
I don’t know what we are going to do against South Africa. We have to watch their bowling. What kind of bowling line-up they will play and who is better for us who can handle that bowling line-up. It all depends on that.
We want to be flexible with our batting. So if the situation demands a left-handed batsman, we will include a left-handed batsman in the team. If a right-handed batsman is required, we will continue to do so.
But we are trying to manage those players very carefully. I understand they need game time before the World Cup but unfortunately only 11 players can play.” Captain Rohit said.
