India’s dynamic wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant has lit up the ongoing Test series against England with his fearless strokeplay, but not everyone is impressed. Well, it does race your heart but that’s how Pant operates. There’s a method to his madness. However, a former Indian keeper has offered caution.
With the must-win fourth Test in Manchester around the corner, former India gloveman Farokh Engineer has issued a sharp piece of advice: “Save those for IPL.”
Pant’s freak nature in Tests
Engineer’s comment comes on the back of Pant’s recurring habit of taking undue risks at critical moments. Despite being India’s second-highest run-getter in the series with 425 runs at an average of over 70 including two centuries, Pant’s dismissals to England’s Shoaib Bashir while attempting audacious shots have called him out.
Not long ago, Pant was called, “stupid” by Sunil Gavaskar when the southpaw gifted his wicket in a crucial juncture during the Australia series. However, Pant’s tons in Leeds quickly made amends as those stupid chants converted into “superb”.
In a conversation with RevSportz, Engineer said: “Absolutely. Save those for IPL. Test cricket demands discipline. From a number three or four, you expect them to play proper cricket, get big scores, and build innings.”
