Pant can fit in at any position

In case India is looking for a destructive middle-order batsman who is flexible enough to fit in at any position as per the need of the hour, from opening to lower-order, they must not look any further than this pocket-sized dynamo. Pant had a great tri-series in the English soils like Agarwal, and will now join the senior team for the Test series.

In 5 matches, Pant scored 158 runs at 50+ average and a strike rate of around 105. His IPL season was astounding, in which he scored 684 runs. It featured a flurry of boundaries and biggies, which can be understood by his 170+ strike rate. In addition to that, Pant can do wicket-keeping, if the rumors of MS Dhoni's retirement before the World Cup turns true.
