After the tragic accident few months ago, Rishabh Pant is all set to miss the IPL 2023. In his absence the franchise has named David Warner as the skipper but the franchise hasn’t named any replacement player yet.
Not only does DC will miss the services of Pant as a skipper, but a quality batter and a keeper as well. There are many speculations about who will keep wickets for the team this year. They have an option in Philip Salt and also Sarfaraz Khan, who is a part-time keeper as well.
Many reports have suggested that the franchise might opt for Sarfaraz Khan as he’s an Indian player and the team already has four overseas slots locked in. Recently a picture of the Mumbai batter doing the keeping practice went viral on social media. In the picture, he can be seen taking catches with gloves in his hands.
Here’s the picture:

Want this guy to do really well in IPL too , he has not only been knocking selector doors for debut in test but also has destroyed it but still no place for him, never seen any guy consistently scoring runs like him ❤️

Obviously it'll be him. Let's see how he handles Nortje & Kuldeep.

No other choice as there ain't many Indian options available and if we play salt, means either Marsh or Powell have to sit, which would be a bad move. If Saifu keeps, not just he'll become a regular member of playing XI but our balance also won't get disrupted

It's good if he can get used to the wicketkeeping job as well , that would break open the doors for him in Test XI

Dada is team director and his experiments with keepers have always paid off . Hoping this one too will benefit the team.
