Lions Are Ready to Roar: Rishabh Pant, Ravindra Jadeja hit `LONG SIXES` in practise session ahead of India vs Pakistan clash - Watch
Ravindra Jadeja will most likely bat in the lower order at seven while Pant could bat at four or five depending upon the situation of the match. There is very little chance of Pant warming the bench and in-form Dinesh Karthik making it to the final playing XI for the Pakistan game.
India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant are gearing up for the much-awaited clash against Pakistan on August 28, Sunday at the Dubai International Stadium. Team India hit the nets on Thursday evening with all the Indian batters going for big shots hinting at their approach for the Sunday clash. Earlier BCCI shared a video of captain Rohit Sharma hitting Yuzvendra Chahal all over the park while now India's only left-handers in the squad, Jadeja and Rishabh can be seen taking on Indian bowlers in the nets.

Ravindra Jadeja will most likely bat in the lower order at seven while Pant could bat at four or five depending upon the situation of the match. There is very little chance of Pant warming the bench and in-form Dinesh Karthik making it to the final playing XI for the Pakistan game. Many cricket experts kept DK in the side over Pant. While the Indian team management is likely to stick with Pant. On the other hand, Jadeja who provides four overs with the ball and can hit long sixes with the bat down the order will be a valuable addition to the XI.
