IND vs PAK 2022 DK didn t play a ball but lost his place in the XI - Inzamam-ul-Haq fails to understand the thinking behind India s team selection

By Gokul Nair Modified 06 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Dinesh Karthik was dropped from the playing XI after the group stage win over Pakistan Former Pakistani captain Inzamam-ul-Haq believes that Team India are shuffling around their playing XI too much. The Men in Blue have had three different playing XIs over the course of their 2022 Asia Cup campaign so far, with injuries not helping their cause. Rohit Sharma's side opted to bench Rishabh Pant for the group stage encounter against Pakistan, preferring the services of veteran wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik instead. Despite the Tamil Nadu-born player only playing a solitary delivery and not getting to bat in the subsequent contest against Hong Kong, he was dropped for the Super 4 clash against Pakistan on Sunday, September 4.

Observing that India were under pressure with the way they went about the changes, Inzamam said on his Youtube channel: "With all the changes they made, India looked like they were under pressure. They should not make these many changes. Dinesh Karthik did not face a ball and still lost his place in the playing XI. The team which India announced, I saw a little panic with it." Experimentation has been at the fore for Team India over the course of the last 10 months. With the 2022 T20 World Cup fast approaching, Rohit Sharma and Co. are on the lookout to find their ideal playing XI on a priority basis.
