Rishabh Pant
The young wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant has been the most debated topic in Indian cricket in the last few months. He has been at the hot seat ever since the World Cup when MS Dhoni went to a sabbatical. But the promising cricketer has failed to live upto the expectation.
Fitting onto the footsteps of Dhoni is not an easy job and Pant is feeling all the pressure from outside which has impacted his game. The young cricketer has lost his natural flow and the wicket-keeping has also hit an all-time low. While the management and skipper have stood by him, nothing seems to work right for Rishabh Pant.
The selectors might ponder giving Pant a break from the upcoming series against West Indies. With Sanju Samson waiting in the wings, it will be a perfect opportunity for the management to take a look at different options on offer.
