Bangladesh: After a rest of about one and a half months, Team India is going to play its next series against Bangladesh. Actually, a series of two Tests and three T20 matches will be played between these two teams. It will be organized in India itself. If we talk about the Test series, then Rohit Sharma can be seen leading the team.

Apart from this, if we talk about the Indian squad, most of the players in the team will be the same who were seen in the Test series against England. This means that Rishabh Pant will not return in the Bangladesh series.

This wicketkeeper batsman had performed brilliantly in his last match. However, despite this, he will hardly get a place in Team India.

Rishabh Pant will not get a chance in the Bangladesh series

Rishabh Pant

On December 30, 2022, Rishabh Pant was the victim of a horrific road accident.

After this, he was away from professional cricket for about one and a half years. Recently, he made a comeback during IPL 2024. Soon after this, he was also a part of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. At the same time, the name of this player was also included in the T20 and ODI series held on the Sri Lanka tour. He has made a comeback in T20 and ODI.

However, he may have to wait for his comeback in Test cricket. Actually, Dhruv Jurel has almost confirmed his place by performing well in the Test series against England. At the same time, KL Rahul can be included in the team as the second wicketkeeper in the Test series against Bangladesh.

In such a situation, Pant may be dropped. Let us tell you that in his last Test, this player played an innings of 93 runs.

Let's not let the situation become like Karun Nair

Karun Nair is one such example, who was dropped from Team India despite performing well. In fact, this player had scored a triple century in his debut series itself. However, despite this, after playing 6 Tests and 2 ODIs, this player from Karnataka was permanently dropped from the Indian team. The right-handed batsman then scored a lot of runs in domestic cricket.

However, the selectors did not trust him. This is the reason why despite having talent, Nair is now desperate to make a comeback in the team.
