Ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy that begins Tomorrow, Team India captain Rohit Sharma said that the team will miss wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant, but has guys who can take that role and perform.

Rohit Sharma was seen attending the Pre-match press conference and was asked about Rishabh Pant.

“We will miss Rishabh Pant but we have guys to fill into the role. We have had a good talk with the batters about their plans and hopefully, we will execute it from tomorrow onwards,” said Rohit Sharma.

Rishabh Pant has been an important part of the team for the last couple of years and has played a major role in India’s test wins . There have been talks going on that Ishan Kishan may replace southpaw who has a similar playing style to him but the management is likely to go with Srikar Bharat who has been the back option for Pant in the red ball setup.
