Raina bats for Pant, says presence of left-hander with Hardik could be X factor
Kolkata, Oct 14 Former batter Suresh Raina feels the left-handed Rishabh Pant could be the X factor for India alongside Hardik Pandya in the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup.
With all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja’s injury ruling him out of the tournament, Pant, who has an excellent record in Australia, could do what the likes of Yuvraj Singh and Raina once did along with former skipper MS Dhoni.
Under Dhoni, India triumphed in the inaugural World T20 in 2007, the 2011 ODI World Cup and the 2013 Champions Trophy, the last ICC tournament the team has won. (PTI)
