Since the MS Dhoni era, Indian cricket has been blessed with an abundance of skilled ball strikers who can also keep wickets efficiently. Pant’s ability to take down spin and left-handedness give him an advantage over others. The only concern is whether he can perform well in a high-intensity style following a lengthy injury layoff.
While his T20 numbers aren’t very impressive, there’s no doubt that if he’s fit, Rohit and Dravid will want him in the squad.
Because of the difficulty in transporting players across swiftly if any of the team members suffer an untimely injury or illness, India may need to travel with two wicket-keeper hitters in the 15-man squad and another as a travelling reserve.
In the last clash, Dhoni tried the best to deliver the runs as much possible but loss balls made him stop at 37 off 16. The unbeaten knock became the talk of the world. As fans all over the world flooded the social media with confirming that Dhoni will be the top contenders of the T20 World Cup Squad 2024.
The fans love and respect towards the players can not top anything in this era. As the cricketer is just playing IPL 2024 for the fandom and tries not to get into the ground mostly to give the throne to the youngsters as he got from the seniors. He’s a player maker, MS Dhoni.
