The selection of India's wicketkeeper for upcoming ODIs against New Zealand presents a dilemma, focusing on role definition rather than a lack of talent. Dhruv Jurel is in exceptional domestic form, scoring 307 runs in three matches, showcasing his ability to bat long and accelerate. However, his limited List A volume and undefined role make him a potential grooming candidate rather than an immediate first choice. Rishabh Pant has a decent ODI record but lacks recent match rhythm and his current domestic performance isn't compelling enough to displace competitors.
