Semi Final 1 - ICC Under 19 World Cup
Rishabh Pant is a star in the making

Rishabh Pant is an aggressive, youthful, and passionate left-handed batsmen who can hit sixes at will, and keep wickets as well. If the team management is looking for someone to invest for the future, then he is the right man for the number six position.

His attacking game was there for everybody to see during the IPL where he played some scintillating innings for the Delhi Daredevils.

He grabbed the eyeballs of the selectors and got selected for the Indian team for their tour of the West Indies earlier this year. He can prove to be a wild card going into the World Cup as he will be an unknown commodity and would thus provide a refreshing option at number six.

If he is trusted for the role, he will have the opportunity to learn from M.S. Dhoni, which will make him grow as a cricketer.
