Rishabh Pant: Team India's performance in the T20 World Cup 2024 has been excellent. The team in blue jersey has secured its place in the next stage of the tournament i.e. Super 8 by winning the first three matches of the group stage consecutively. However, before that Rohit and company will play their last match of the group stage against Canada.

Team India's dashing wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant may be dropped from this match. In his place, Sanju Samson can take up the responsibility of wicketkeeping.

Rishabh Pant will be out

Rishabh Pant, the dashing wicketkeeper-batsman, is showing excellent performance in the T20 World Cup 2024. He has played valuable innings in all the matches from the warm-up match against Bangladesh to India's last match against the USA. Rishabh scored an unbeaten 36* in the first match of the tournament against Ireland, 42 against Pakistan and 18 against the USA on Thursday. In such a situation, captain Rohit Sharma and the team management can give Rishabh Pant a break before the Super 8.

Rishabh Pant will not play against Canada

India and Canada will play their last match of the group stage on Saturday in Lauderhill, Florida. The result of this match will not make any difference in the equation of Super 8. In such a situation, seeing Rishabh Pant being rested, captain Rohit Sharma can give a chance to Sanju Samson. It is worth noting that India has to play its first match of the Super 8 stage on June 20.

Rishabh Pant is making a comeback after injury

Let us tell you that in December 2022, Rishabh Pant was caught in a horrific road accident while returning from Delhi to his home in Roorkee. He was badly injured in this accident and narrowly escaped death. After this, he remained away from the cricket field for about one and a half years. But with his hard work and dedication, Rishabh made a comeback to cricket through IPL 2024 and got a place in the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup 2024 by showing excellent performance. Now he is also playing match-winning innings for India.
