While many accepted that it was a startling choice by the selectors, previous India opener Virender Sehwag said he was not astounded by Pant’s omission.The BCCI reported India’s crews for every one of the three organizations for the forthcoming visit through Australia, which had a lot of astonishments. While Rohit Sharma was not picked for any of the three configurations because of injury concerns, wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant was not chosen in India’s restricted overs crew against Australia. While many accepted that it was a sudden choice by the selectors, previous India opener Virender Sehwag said he was not amazed by Pant’s omission.It was not astonishing that Pant was excluded,” Sehwag said on Cricbuzz. “On the last visit, he was not part of the playing XI in spite of being fit. KL Rahul had performed well as a wicketkeeper and he was utilized as the standard wicketkeeper in the restricted overs arrangement, and Rishabh Pant was kept out,” Sehwag said.It may have been an approach to make an impression on Rishabh Pant that he needs to change his style of play. He would continue losing his wickets, and he doesn’t polish off games, and he needs to figure out how to complete games. On the off chance that he doesn’t do that, he would not be given possibilities.”

“In any case, here Rishabh Pant is acceptable guardian, however the manner in which he parts with his wickets, Kohli and Ravi Shastri probably won’t be satisfied with him. Just Rishabh Pant can roll out this improvement – he needs to polish off games in each open door he gets. He needs to substantiate himself that he has the ability to re-visitation of the Indian group.”
