Rishabh Pant and Dhruv Jurel leave? This big experiment is happening in Team India before the New Zealand series.

News India Live, Digital Desk: In Indian cricket, the line between “rest” and “drop” is very thin. The ODI series against New Zealand is round the corner, and if reports are to be believed, Team India’s management is in the mood to make some major changes in the wicketkeeping department. The latest update is that our star wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant and rising star Dhruv Jurel will not get a place in the team for this series. Now you must be wondering, brother, what is the reason? Is this bad form or some new twist in the rotation policy? What is the ‘masterplan’? Actually, this decision is not being taken to find any player’s shortcomings, but keeping workload management and team balance in mind. The Indian team has to play cricket continuously, especially the schedule of Test matches is very tight. In such a situation, the selectors want that an important player like Rishabh Pant should be saved from unnecessary fatigue so that he can enter the big matches with full energy. As for Dhruv Jurel, he will get more opportunities, but perhaps experience is being given priority in this ODI series. Then who will do the wicketkeeping? (Conch sound of return!) Now the biggest question – If not Pant and not Jurel, then who will stand behind the wicket? This is where the twist in the story comes. The report suggests that the return of KL Rahul is considered certain. Rahul’s record in ODI cricket as a middle order batsman and wicketkeeper has been excellent. The management once again wants to express confidence in his class and experience. KL Rahul is a player who knows how to run the game. Whether handling the innings in the middle overs or hitting in the last overs, he likes the ODI format a lot. Will doors open for Ishaan and Sanju too? In the absence of Pant and Jurel, another place can be created in the squad. In such a situation, fans are hoping whether Ishan Kishan or Sanju Samson will also get a chance as backup? It will be quite interesting to see. ConclusionFor now, it is not official yet, but if there is smoke, there must be a fire somewhere. India wants to go with its experience against a strong team like New Zealand, so KL Rahul seems to have the upper hand. What do you think? Is it the right decision to drop Rishabh Pant or should he have played?
