Hardik Pandya
Hardik can slot in at six. He has been the most in-form Indian batter in this tournament so far. He had an average game against Pakistan but needs to be at his very best against Afghanistan. His face-off against Rashid Khan will be a mouth-watering clash.
Dinesh Karthik / Rishabh Pant (WK)
The management is still unsure between Pant and Karthik as the specialist wicketkeeper. Their selection might come down to the team combination required for the game.
