The T20 World Cup is well and truly underway and the ongoing qualifiers have seen Namibia upsetting Sri Lanka and Scotland getting the better of West Indies. The Super 12 stage will get started on Saturday with Australia squaring off against New Zealand. Team India will begin their campaign on October 23 against Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The preparation of Rohit Sharma and co has started on a good note, as the side defeated defending champions Australia in a warm-up game on Monday.

While it was Dinesh Karthik who kept the wickets for India during bowling, Pant was spotted in the dugout with a heavy strapping and ice pack on his right knee.

The edition presents the Rohit Sharma-led team yet another chance to end a nine-year-old drought for India to win an ICC title. Going into the mega-event, India have a plethora of options to choose from when it comes to right-handed batters. Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya and Dinesh Karthik may well form the top six. India have a lone specialist left-handed batter in Rishabh Pant, and whether he makes it to the XI or not is the big question.
