Rishabh Pant is one of the two wicketkeeper-batsmen in the India squad with KL Rahul being the other one. As of now, it is still not clear if the Delhi star will get the nod ahead of Rahul to don the wicketkeeping gloves.
While Rishabh Pant has become an integral member of India's Test team, the same cannot be said about his place in the ODI as well as T20I squad.

However, Raina has thrown his support behind Pant, saying that his former India teammate has improved his wicketkeeping. Raina also said that the upcoming three-match ODI series against England will be a good opportunity for Pant.
"In the upcoming tournament with England you’ve got 3 One Days, this will be a good opportunity for Rishabh Pant," he added.
Rishabh Pant can finish off the game:
"It depends on how you play, I think if Yashasvi does not play in the top order then Rishabh Pant will have a very important role, he can bat at the fourth position he can also come in to bat before Hardik because if Rishabh goes on to play 40-50 deliveries then he can finish off the game," said Raina.
Meanwhile, the Champions Trophy is scheduled to be played from February 19 in Pakistan and UAE. India will be playing all of their games in the UAE. Team India are in Group A alongside Pakistan, Bangladesh and New Zealand.
