‘Dhoni absence is chance for Pant’

India captain Rohit Sharma is confident that young Rishabh Pant will use the upcoming T20 series against West Indies as an “opportunity to express himself” in the absence of the talismanic Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

Dhoni, whose batting form has been on the wane, is not a part of the shortest format presenting Pant with a golden chance to consolidate his place in limited overs cricket.
