Krunal Pandya can fit in the role perfectly

Having experienced the big stage during the IPL, Krunal Pandya can play the role of a finisher quite well. He fits the role perfectly since he provides a left-handed option with the bat in the middle order and can also bowl useful left-arm orthodox.

Pandya was rewarded for his good performances in the domestic circuit when he got selected to play for India A for their tour to South Africa. If the team management decides to go with him, then he could enable the team to play two wrist spinners because of his ability to bowl orthodox spin - the ploy that the Indian team has recently resorted to.

He also has a power game with the bat, particularly against the spinners, and can add some quick, useful runs. He has a staggering strike rate of over 150 in the IPL and is known for his big hitting down the order.
