Ravi Shastri says India need an all-rounder at No. 6, rules out Hardik Pandya as pure batter

Ravi Shastri feels the team needs a first-choice all-rounder at number six, ruling out Hardik Pandya's inclusion as a pure batter in the T20 World Cup in Australia. Hardik has not been able to go full throttle with the ball since returning from surgery to treat an injured back. With the upcoming T20 World Cup providing India an opportunity to make amends for their league-stage exit in the last edition of the showpiece in the UAE, the team management will be keenly looking at the IPL for players who can fit into the number six slot as an all-rounder and lend more balance to the XI.
