Rishabh Pant or Sanju Samson in starting XI? India legend picks his choice citing one's superior glove work

NEW DELHI: Cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar has endorsed Rishabh Pant as India's starting wicketkeeper for the 2024 T20 World Cup, citing Pant's superior glove work and recent form. Gavaskar's comments come after a stellar performance by Pant in India's lone warm-up game against Bangladesh, where he scored a blistering 53 off 32 balls.

Pant's competitor, Sanju Samson, failed to make an impact in the same match, managing only one run off six balls. With both players having impressive IPL 2024 seasons, the decision to choose between them has been a subject of debate.
