- Rishabh Pant will take over as wicketkeeper from MS Dhoni for the final two matches of India’s one-day series against Australia with the former captain being rested ahead of the World Cup later this year.
The decision to rest Dhoni may signal the end of his international career in his home country, with the 37-year-old still to make an announcement on his future after the May 30-July 14 World Cup in England and Wales. “We will have a few changes in the next couple of games,” Kohli said after Australia won the third game in Dhoni’s hometown of Ranchi by 32 runs to leave India with a 2-1 advantage in the series.“But the idea is still to go out there and ask the guys to put in match-winning performances and take a lot of pride in winning for the country. That mindset will not change.
The decision to rest Dhoni was not a surprise given he has been battling leg injuries and still has to play the Indian Premier League before the World Cup, while the selectors have managed the workload of key players over the last few months.
