India set to take on England in the semifinal of the ongoing T20 World Cup at Adelaide. Riding on confidence, Team India produced a good performance during the Super 12 round as they finished top in Group 2. While on the other hand, England got the second place in Group 2.
Ahead of the much-awaited clash, India skipper Rohit Sharma briefed a press conference and talked about his team combination for the mega clash.
Rishabh Pant was given a chance in playing XI in India’s last game against Zimbabwe. He had a good day with the keeping gloves scored just 3 runs.
“Between DK and Pant, I had just during the last game as well, Pant was the only guy who did not get to play on this tour at all except the two games we played at Perth. They were unofficial practice games but since then he has not had a hit. He was missing game-time, so we wanted to give him time and have some options as well if we want to make changes in the semi-final or final,” said Rohit during a pre-match press conference.
“It will be unfair to bring a guy out of nowhere and make him play the game, so that was the thought. But again, we have told the guys that everyone needs to be ready for whichever game they play, whether it is the semis or league games. It was a little tactical as well considering we did not know which team we would play in semi-final before that Zimbabwe game. We wanted to make sure to give the left-hander an opportunity to counter those spinners who bowl in the middle. But again, what is going to happen tomorrow, I cannot tell you know but both of those keepers will be in play for selection,” he added.
India have not won any T20 World Cup after lifting the title for the first time in 2007. While England have won it in 2010.
