India Playing XI vs Pakistan: Rohit Sharma Opts For Veteran Dinesh Karthik Over Rishabh Pant
The Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma sprung a big surprise at the toss of the Asia Cup 2022 match against Pakistan on Sunday when he announced that Dinesh Karthik would be playing in the XI ahead of regular wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant. "Having played here for a few years now, I thought having a score in front of us would be a good option. There is some grass covering and we want to exploit it. Rishabh Pant unfortunately misses out, we got out with Karthik. Avesh is the third seamer," Rohit said at the toss.
