Allows MS Dhoni to bat at No.4

If India is able to find a capable finisher, Dhoni can move up the order

India is on the verge of solving the No.4 problem. MS Dhoni is the best option for the position right now. India wasn't able to play him at No.4 just because of lack of stability in the middle-order and the lower middle order.

With Kedar Jadhav at No.5 and Pandey at No.6, it allows Dhoni the freedom to play his game while coming in at No.4. Even though Pandey is not necessarily a designated big hitter like Dhoni, he is also an unorthodox player like the former Indian captain and can certainly access plenty of different areas.

He has a lot of unorthodox shots in his bag of tricks, which will become especially critical during the death overs.
