“Difficult one” - AB de Villiers gives his verdict on DK vs Pant debate

Apart from discussing his future with RCB, De Villiers has also been sharing his frank views on the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022. The hot topic in Indian cricket right now is who should keep wickets in the semi-final against England on Thursday, November 10.

Sharing his thoughts on the same, the South African said on his YouTube channel:

"Difficult one. For me, absolutely no doubt, DK should be there. Knock-out stages, he's experienced, I would want him. But, here's the curveball, I would want Pant in the team as well. I would find another spot for him. I don't know who makes way for him.

"Pant has got Test hundreds in Australia before, he's got the experience, and the confidence to take the game away from any bowling attack. He can face fast bowling and spin. He's versatile, I will make room for both of these guys. You need DK's experience and you need Pant's match-winning abilities. That's my five cents."

The winner of the India-England clash will take on Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2022 final at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Sunday, November 13.
