Pant told whom on the middle field, keep awake, keep running

New DelhiRishabh Pant was discussed more than the pitch on the first day of the Pune Test match. On a spinning and bouncy pitch, Rishabh Pant took two catches out of the first three wickets that fell and his/her collection on the leg side was also excellent. Apart from keeping, he/she also works like an alarm clock to wake everyone up.

When a partnership started forming between Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra, the shoulders of the bowlers started slouching when suddenly a voice came from behind the wicket saying, stay alert, do not get loose, keep the body language correct. When Rachin Ravindra was batting in 36.5 overs, this statement of Pant was recorded by the stump mic.

stay awake keep running

Rishabh Pant was looking a bit off color at the beginning of the match. Initially, 8 runs were given by but after taking the catch of Will Young, Pant came into the same avatar for which he/she has been known. When Pant took the catch of Young on the leg side, even he/she did not realize it. After the catch, he/she made many brilliant saves and also worked to wake up his/her fellow players. After lunch, the set batsman ended a good partnership with a brilliant catch by Conway. Pant is constantly encouraging the bowlers because he/she knows that the Indian team has to play the fourth innings and the extra runs given in the first innings can be very costly.

Will have a big role as a batsman too

Apart from keeping, Rishabh Pant’s role is also going to be big in batting. On the rotating pitch, New Zealand has also entered the field with two left-arm spinners, whose spin will be cut by Pant, who along with being a left-handed batsman, also has strong footwork. Let’s play spin. Even in Test cricket, Pant scores runs at a strike rate of 112 against left-arm spin bowlers. Rishabh Pant has also shown signs of being in form in the Bangalore Test.
