India vs Australia 2019: 3 Indian players for whom this is a great chance to seal a place in the World Cup squad

#2 Rishabh Pant

Rishabh Pant plays an attacking stroke

Rishabh Pant has received a lot of support from former stars who have been heaping praise on him, and his inclusion in the squad shows that Team India are beginning to feel the same way. In the T20I series against New Zealand Pant played a couple of attacking innings, and he has shown maturity in settling down before starting to play his shots.

Pant's performance for India A in the ODIs showed that he can be of good use even in the 50-over format. But it will be interesting to see where Pant will fit in in the ODI team and where he will bat in the batting order.

Pant is being groomed as the replacement for MS Dhoni, and this series will be a great opportunity for him to justify that - even though Dhoni is expected to don the gloves.
