The main discussion is who will be the wicket keeper of the team. Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, KL Rahul, Jitesh Sharma and Ishan Kishan are all leading wicket keepers in IPL. In this, Sanju and Pant are in the top ten in the list of players who have scored the most runs in the tournament.

Sanju Samson, the Malayali star and captain of Rajasthan Royals, is third in the list. Sanju scored 268 runs in 6 matches. 66 average and 155 strike rate. Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant is at the sixth position in the list. He scored 194 runs at an average of 32.33 with a strike rate of 157. Sanju is ahead in exactly these figures. Sanju has come a long way as a wicket keeper and as a captain rather than a batsman. Aussie superstar Steve Smith chose Sanju as the best captain of the season so far. Experts say that Sanju’s wicket-keeping has improved significantly. Despite this, Rishabh Pant has more chances to make the World Cup team.

Playing 66 T20 Internationals, the ball has a poor record of 126 strike rate and 22 average, but is supported by being a left-armer, a middle-order batsman and a match-winner at least in the longer formats. Many former players have demanded that Rishabh Pant be included in the World Cup squad. Mohammad Kaif, Adam Gilchrist, Michael Warne and many other former players are with the ball. Sanju plays at number three for Rajasthan. When considering the Indian team, Virat Kohli is at number three. Ball at number 4 for Delhi. Even though the Indian team has Suryakumar Yadav in this position, Pant can also be considered at number five. IPL is only 35 percent over. There are still matches. Performances will change, then Sanju may be left behind. KL Rahul can come forward. But pundits on social media are now giving Ball over Sanju. That said, the current reckoning is that Sanju may not make it to the World Cup squad despite doing everything he is supposed to do and not making any particular mistakes.
