Indeed, England had a slow start on the first day by Docket and Zack Croly. Pant gave a befitting reply while holding the same thing.
At the same time, on the third day, England captain Ben Stokes tried to take advantage of Pant’s injury. He continuously adopted short bowling strategy and punished fielding on the leg side. Pant was in pain, but he did not give up and scored a brilliant 74 runs. However, England got his wicket through run out just before lunch. Stokes sent Pant to the pavilion by directly hit the cover.
Pant, along with KL Rahul, shared a 141 -run partnership for the fourth wicket and handled India’s innings. But the fans are also very much liked by the fans on the field.
