Tujhe nahi pata...': Pant recalls Rohit's words after Gabba win
Rishabh Pant received the Player of the Match award at the Gabba for his unbeaten 89 off 138 balls, including nine fours and a six. This Test win marked a turning point in his international career, and he has since become a key player in all formats. Pant, known for his bold batting style, faced criticism for shot selection, but he has proven to be a vital part of the Indian team.
Despite facing inconsistency in T20s and being considered the second-choice wicketkeeper behind Wriddhiman Saha for the 2020-21 Test series in Australia, Pant seized the opportunity when Saha got injured. His exceptional performance at the Gabba played a crucial role in India's historic victory Down Under.
Former India fielding coach R Sridhar shared a moment when Rohit Sharma praised Pant for his remarkable innings. Pant's calm demeanor in the face of success impressed Sridhar, who sees a promising future for the 24-year-old. Sridhar believes Pant's experiences, like his impressive performance in Manchester, indicate more success to come in the future.
Sridhar also expressed confidence in Pant's leadership abilities, drawing parallels with MS Dhoni's growth. He highlighted how Pant, surrounded by accomplished players, is gaining cricketing intelligence. Sridhar predicts that as Pant separates his leadership from his batting, he will become an entertaining and successful leader in the future.
