Its going to be
Rayudu vs Karthik vs Gill vs Pant(Outside chance)
Hmm, it ll eventually comes down to 1 World Cup Spot of
Rayudu/DK/Gill/Pant.
Atleast the selectors think this way, that's why they ve given Rayudu chance for 1st 2 Odi s. He s still in contention for that World cup spot. But anybody can grab that spot. If Gill scores couple of 50s or a 100 he ll be the front runner.
Thats what team management & selectors also trying to shortlist. Right now no one has sealed this spot.
Very close contest between DK & Rayudu being the front runners for the spot. But Pant & Gill are the dark horses.
I feel Rayudu will get another game this series & rested for last 2 matches
, Gill & Karthik will play last 2 matches or Rayudu will be rested for next match Dk ll play last 3 matches.
Australia home series also these 3 may get equal chance. Based upon the performances 1 will get shortlisted for that spot.
