Pant, who made his T20I debut for India against England in Bengaluru, is touted to slot into the finisher's role once MS Dhoni decides to call time on his stellar career.

The youngster has featured in 13 Test matches, 15 ODIs and 28 T20Is for the senior side, while he has amassed 1736 runs from 54 matches for the Delhi Capitals at a strike rate of 162.66 in the IPL.

Pant last stepped onto the field for India during the Test series against New Zealand last month, and will be in action for the Delhi Capitals when the IPL kicks off this year.
