3 players with an outside chance of making India's World Cup squad 

#1 Rishab Pant

Pant has been in sizzling form

A member of India's Under 19 World Cup runner-up campaign in 2016, Rishab Pant has made a splash in the IPL this season with some breathtaking innings. Only 20 years old, the wicket-keeper batsman has an outside shot of making the World Cup squad.

Good consistent showings up until the World Cup will definitely boost his chances of securing a spot in next year's tournament. With Dhoni and Dinesh Karthik in the mix, Pant faces a hard task to break into the team.

Pant will look to capitalise on his form with performances in domestic cricket and maybe win over a few selectors. Pant is definitely a future Indian regular but he could speed the process up and cement his spot in the team with a strong showing in the coming year.
