Before the game, skipper Rohit Sharma spoke at a news conference about the team's preparations and what kind of lineup the team would use.

 

Rishabh Pant, a wicketkeeper-batter, was given an opportunity to play XI in India's penultimate Super 12 game against Zimbabwe, replacing Dinesh Karthik. Pant, however, fell short.as he only scored three runs

 

"With the exception of the two games we played in Perth, between DK and Pant, Pant was the only man who did not get to play on this trip at all." They were unofficial practise games, but he hasn't been struck since. "He was lacking game-time, so we wanted to give him time while also having choices if we needed to make changes in the semi-final or final," Rohit stated during a pre-match news conference.be prepared for whichever game they play, whether it's a semi-final or a league game It was also somewhat tactical, given that we had no idea who we would face in the semi-finals before to the Zimbabwe game.

"You can form an opinion about his personality. I'm not sure if you've heard him in interviews, but he loves to play the same way whether we're 10 for 2 or 100 for 2. He enjoys going out and expressing himself. That is most likely why he was selected for the previous World Cup team. We did not have a good time.
