BCCI announced the squads for the ODI and T20I series against Sri Lanka, and it was surprising that Pant was missing from both squads. However, it was later revealed that Pant will head to the NCA for his knee strengthening keeping the test series against Australia in mind next month.
Pant is India’s valuable asset in the red-ball format for the Indian team and played a crucial part in the recent test series against Bangladesh as well. Pant’s absence will certainly cost the Indian team, and they will expect him to be fit as soon as possible.
