The national selection committee is unlikely to blood any rookie IPL performer during the upcoming T20 World Cup in the Americas but a couple of tried-and-tested faces might have to brace up for disappointment when the squad is finalised by the end of this month. With the ICC making it mandatory to announce the provisional 15-member squad by May 1 cut-off date, Ajit Agarkar and his colleagues have some straightforward choices to make if every member of the team is fit.

T20 World Cup Audition Done And Dusted? Rishabh Pant's Magical Catch In DC's Big Win Over GT Goes Viral

Rishabh Pant could do no wrong on Wednesday. Leading Delhi Capitals against Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2024, Pant's wicketkeeping was top-notch as he was involved in several dismissals as GT got all out for just 89. Then, he stayed unbeaten and took DC home in just 8.5 overs. DC's win with 67 balls remaining is their biggest in IPL (in terms of number of balls remaining). While the GT batters played some poor shots, the chirpy Pant made sure to make their stay at the pitch difficult.

n already-troubled Hardik Pandya could be in for a big setback if things don't go his way in the ongoing Indian Premier League (PL) 2024. While the batter Hardik is yet to fire, having only scored 131 runs in 6 matches at an average of 26.20 this season. With the ball, Hardik has been fairly inconsistent to even take up the responsibility. He has barely bowled in the last 4 matches, and when he has, the opponent team's batters have ripped him apart. With a place in India's T20 World Cup 2024 squad, Pandya has reportedly been sent a clear message from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) selection committee.
