It’s been a search for a worthy replacement to MS Dhoni’s wicketkeeper-batter role ever since his retirement from international cricket.
The search for a replacement for MS Dhoni’s wicketkeeper-batter role has been ongoing since his retirement from international cricket. It appears like Rishabh Pant has taken the lead. For the Indian cricket squad, the captain of the Delhi Capitals has impressed. In addition to his power-hitting prowess, Pant’s remarkable performances include Test centuries in abroad settings. He’s also gotten much better at wicketkeeping. Pant, on the other hand, failed to light up the IPL 2022 with his performance, scoring only 340 runs at an average of 30.91 in 14 games.
Pant’s DR’s judgments have also fallen flat, but BCCI president Sourav Ganguly believes that with time, Pant will improve. “Comparing Pant to MS Dhoni is unfair. Having captained more than 500 games throughout the IPL, Tests, and ODIs, Dhoni has a wealth of experience. As a result, drawing comparisons between Rishabh and Dhoni is unfair “It’s something that I stated at a promotional event on Tuesday,” Ganguly remarked.
One of the IPL’s most surprising discoveries, Sunrisers Hyderabad fast bowler Umran Malik, has been selected for India’s five-match T20I series against South Africa. Umran has made Ganguly very happy.
“His future is in the hands of those who care about him. I’m confident he’ll be around for a long time if he continues to bowl at this pace. Everyone has done well in this IPL. MI’s Tilak (Varma) has been a success. Tewatia plays for GT, while Rahul (Tripathi) plays for Sunrisers “Ganguly made the statement.
“Since Malik’s debut in the IPL, we’ve seen a slew of promising young fast bowlers come into their own. It’s a place where the best in the business are discovered.”
