Oh well! I never expected this- Sundar over Hooda? But again nostalgic to see Sundar open (he did some 5 years ago playing in TNPL & for the Tamil Nadu side). Also AFAIK we had some other Sundar opening the batting for India in the late 90s & early 00's.
India's punt with Pant opening means they want an aggressive opener. Basically, this is pointing towards the return of either Kishan or Shaw to their preferred position.
Remember, both opened in their U19 days under the tutelage of Dravid.

Looking forward to Rohit's captaincy, seen him create a lot of pressure in low scoring totals in the IPL, should love to see the same attacking mindset here.

Well, the more I see India bat in ODI's the more I feel this format is useless . I mean we have so many freaking openers doing so well and we go for Pant in opening. What is our build up to 2023? Does anyone even know what their role is just like 2019. I definitely like the idea of KL and SKY in the middle overs. I think I would prefer KL and one of SKY/Iyer to take up 4 and 5. Also Virat just needs to take a break from cricket and this is all format. He is not contributing anything to the team and might as well sit out and get fresh and think what is wrong.
I am not sure I am liking this tinkering and all. I am sure Dravid and co have a plan but as an outsider right now, it looks surprising, confusing and limited overs in shambles feeling. Are we telling Dhawan its times up?
