Rishabh Pant has not yet played 50-over cricket for India

Rishabh Pant has been on the radar of the Indian selectors for a long time. The Delhi lad is considered as the successor to India's most successful wicketkeeper MS Dhoni. Rishabh has played a few promising knocks in his short domestic career. In the previous Ranji Trophy season, Pant scored the fastest hundred in domestic cricket off 48 balls.

Before his Ranji Trophy success, he scored the fastest half-century in the Under 19 World Cup. In the 2017-18 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, the southpaw scored the fastest hundred in T20 domestic cricket taking 32 balls. Pant is famous for playing blistering and quick fiery knocks. He can take the game away from the opposition in a matter of moments.

The youngster can find himself in the U19 World Cup squad as the backup keeper.
