Adam Gilchrist’s Top Choice for T20 World Cup 2024: Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, or Ishan Kishan?

The Indian cricket team selectors have expressed their expectations for Rishabh Pant to be included in the team, as well as considering Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan for selection. Pant’s recent strong performance for the Delhi Capitals in the IPL 2024, following his recovery from a near-fatal accident in 2022, has been particularly noteworthy. His form has been encouraging, with 194 runs scored in six matches at an impressive economy rate of 157.72. Sanju Samson has also shown promise, scoring 246 runs in 6 matches with 3 half-centuries, while Kishan has scored 161 runs at a high strike rate of 182.95.

In contrast, Jitesh has not had many opportunities to showcase his batting skills, and when he did, his performance fell short of expectations. With just 77 runs scored in five matches and a strike rate of 135.08, there is room for improvement in his performance.
