Pant’s decision did not work and even in his innings he returned to the pavilion without opening an account. Pant went to play a big shot against Mukesh Kumar on the first ball of his innings and could not even touch the ball. After this, he was bowled in the affair of playing reverse lap on the second ball. Let me tell you that this season was dismissed for the second time on the score of 0.

Despite the 87 -run opening partnership, the Lucknow team could only manage 159 runs at the loss of 6 wickets in the scheduled 20 overs.

Pujara Bole’s Pant should bat in the middle overs in T20 cricket. He cannot play like a finisher like Dhoni and he should not try to do something like this.
