Sourav Ganguly, a former captain of India, has offered advice on the World Cup 2023's wicket-keeping dilemma. At the National Cricket Academy, Rishabh Pant has joined the field and begun batting in simulated matches. He is still too out of shape to be selected for Team India, though. India is still looking for a wicketkeeper batter to take Rishabh Pant's place and act as a backup as the World Cup approaches, along with the number 4 berth in the middle order. According to reports, KL Rahul is healthy enough to play for India in the next Asia Cup. Rahul will bat in the middle order and serve as the team's wicketkeeper. Sourav Ganguly, a former Indian captain, has proposed a candidate for the job of backup wicket keeper.
Sourav Ganguly wants Ishan Kishan in team
The management will be seeking to draught another wicketkeeper in addition to KL Rahul to be on the safe side because Rishabh Pant is unable to play due to his unintentional injuries. Ishan Kishan should remain on the 15-member roster for the 2023 World Cup and Asia Cup, according to the former Indian captain. Pant is the greatest wicketkeeper in the country, but depending on their fitness, you can also see Ishan Kishan and KL Rahul; these two will be at the top of Rohit and Rahul's heads. Along with left-hander Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson is also vying for the wicket-keeping position.
In the just-finished three-match ODI series against the West Indies, Ishan Kishan batted superbly. In the three-match ODI series, Kishan opened the batting alongside Shubman Gill, scoring 184 runs in three innings. In each of his three innings against the West Indies, he also scored half centuries. Kishan has made himself a contender for a spot on the 15-person roster with this effort. Ishan Kishan, according to former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly, "just opens up the game for any team," so it's a good idea to keep him around. I have no doubt that David will keep him in mind.
