Team India’s entry in the semi-finals of the ICC T20 World Cup, 2022 confirmed. Now, the next match of the Indian team will be against Zimbabwe on Sunday, November 6 at the MCG ground. It is believed that in this match of India vs Zimbabwe, India will have the same playing XI as in the previous match.
However, there is definitely a discussion on whether Rishabh Pant should be given a chance in place of the team’s wicket-keeper Dinesh Karthik.
In this latest World Cup, Dinesh Karthik has done well for the wicketkeeper, but in the matches played so far, he has been able to score 1, 6 and 7 runs in his 3 innings. In total he faced 22 balls. In the match played against Bangladesh (India vs Bangladesh T20 World Cup, 2022), he had caught up, but was run out due to a misunderstanding with Virat Kohli about taking runs on the pitch.
Here Rishabh Pant is also sweating a lot. It is worth mentioning that against Bangladesh, he could have gone to Mrunuta instead of Dinesh Karthik, as Karthik suffered a back injury. But, he recovered and in that match too Dinesh Karthik came in the field.

If we beat the matches played so far, after three matches in the fourth match, KL Rahul returned to form and scored 50 runs in 32 balls with the help of 4 sixes and 3 fours against Bangladesh. Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav have performed well. Hardik Pandya may waver in batting in some matches, but he is priceless. At the same time, team captain Rohit Sharma has had a very poor performance in this tournament so far. Although he had hit a half-century against the Netherlands, his signature form was not visible.
IND vs ZIM Probable Playing-XI
Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant/Dinesh Karthik (wk), Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami Arshdeep Singh.
