After Dhoni, Dinesh Karthik has proven himself in the middle order and Rishabh Pant has influenced everyone with his performance in all the opportunities received in a year. Rishabh Pant can play large shots but it still needs to show a little maturity.

MSK Prasad said, "Vijay Shankar also made impressive performances during New Zealand tour and has forced him to think on the name."In the absence of Kohli, Vijay Shankar batted in third place, where he scored 43 runs from 28 balls in the final match. Prasad said that selectors from 20 players will choose the final -15 players.

Prasad indicated that Ajinkya Rahane could be included in the World Cup as a third opener. . Rahane played his last one-day international against South Africa last year. After that he could not make a comeback in the one-day team but in the list A cricket, Rahane scored 597 runs in 11 innings.
