India need to decide between Rishabh Pant, Dinesh Karthik: Saba Karim

TIL Desk Sports/ Former India wicketkeeper-batter Saba Karim feels that the side has to decide between keeping either of Rishabh Pant or Dinesh Karthik in the playing eleven.

With the Asia Cup starting from August 27 in the UAE, the tournament presents a chance for India to sort out their playing eleven composition ahead of Men’s T20 World Cup in Australia in October-November.

Since his comeback in T20I cricket in June, Karthik has been bringing out the required finishing acts and effectively sealing the finisher spot in the Indian team.

A 27-ball 55 on a tough pitch against South Africa at Rajkot and an unbeaten 19-ball 41 on a tricky pitch against West Indies at Trinidad have been some examples of Karthik’s finishing role benefitting India in recent times.

On the other hand, Pant has had a mixed run apart from being tried as an opener twice against England.
