"Don't See His Name In The Mix": Sunil Gavaskar On India Veteran's T20 World Cup Chances
As India prepare for the 2022 T20 World Cup, they are spoilt for choice in most departments, with several experienced players in good form and newcomers also knocking on the doors with their performances in the Indian Premier League (IPL). However, one player who seems to have been put on the backburner is veteran opener, Shikhar Dhawan. The left-hander, who last played a T20 International (T20I) in June last year against Sri Lanka, wasn't part of the 2021 T20 World Cup and has not been picked for the recently concluded 5-match series against South Africa or the two-match series against Ireland coming up later this month.

India vs South Africa: Rishabh Pant is very big and integral part of our plan in next few months, says Rahul Dravid
Rahul Dravid on Sunday made it clear that the under-fire Rishabh Pant is a "big" and "integral" part of the set-up heading into the T20 World Cup in Australia. Pant, who led the side in the five-match series against South Africa that ended in a 2-2 draw after the last game was called off due to rain, managed only 58 runs in the five innings that led to some questions being raised about his place in the shortest format. However, Dravid was very clear that Pant is going nowhere. "Personally, he would have liked to score a few more runs but it is not concerning him. Certainly, he is a very big part of our plans going ahead in next few months," Dravid said during the post-match press conference.
