Rishabh Pant has been making all the right noises since his sensational season for Delhi Daredevils in the IPL 2017. He recently scored a 41-ball 67 against New Zealand A in a first class match. Pant is a natural hitter but also possess the ability to play the long innings as evident by his triple hundred against Maharashtra during the last Ranji season.

Pant need not replace Dhoni behind the stumps but can play as a proper batsman in place of Jadhav or Manish Pandey. Although both of them have been doing well and do not deserve to sit out, it would be a good idea to try Pant in the middle and give him the feel of playing international cricket against a top quality attack. Also, he would learn a lot about keeping and match awareness by spending time with Dhoni.
