Chasing down 324, Shubman Gill laid the foundation with a fluent 91, but Pant’s quick scoring and aggressive approach helped India to break Australia’s long-standing dominance at their so-called fortress and win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Pant’s knock is still considered one of the iconic Test innings, but the former Australian head coach Justin Langer has played down the magic of that moment.
Langer, who works with Rishabh Pant at Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the IPL, has suggested that the left-handed batter’s innings wasn’t entirely extraordinary, as he pointed out how the pitch that day was flatter than usual and the conditions were different from the typical Gabba challenge.
It was the flattest wicket: Justin Langer
Justin Langer said on the "For the Love of Cricket" podcast: "Brisbane was always a cauldron for us and has been for years. We lost to India a couple of Test series ago.

What did Justin Langer say after the Gabba defeat in 2021?
He had said at the press conference in Brisbane back in 2021, “It was an amazing effort. (Rishabh) Pant’s innings somewhat reminded me of Ben Stokes’ innings in Headingley, actually. He came in; he was almost fearless, and he will be lauded because of it. It was an unbelievable innings.”
Interestingly, reports suggest that Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) could decide to part ways with either Justin Langer or mentor Zaheer Khan ahead of IPL 2026 following a poor 2025 season.
