Try Pant as an opener

[zen]

Cameo (SR 150) helped Ind post a competitive total (from the position they were in on a absolutely batting friend pitch) .... Now only if he had the opportunity to play 90 balls as well .... how long can Ind afford to ignore

Would be perfect for India A team

Kedar doing his usual bit of dropping.

Now Dhawan drops one.

Turner has all the luck today.

Really felt bad for him he has to fill MSD shoes and for every mistake he makes people chant MSD name

Did not gain much by persisting with Tuktuk in this series. Could have given Pant a few games to open ....

if not Pant, the approach has to be like his for opening and the way Rohit bats is how a no 4 or 5 should bat

Yes, Pant is in the squad therefore discussed here as he is quintessential of such type of approach

Looking at scorecards of recent matches in Eng, it appears as if Pant is already being missed!

I hope that the wheels do not fall off in the WC .... Too many has-beens in the line up

The FACT is that Ind would not miss Rohit in key events if we go by recent records .... Guys like Pant have more potential
