Rishabh Pant washed the British even in pain, a befitting reply to Ben Stokes’s black handiwork; Dhoni was parked
Rishabh pant equals ms dhoni with fifty at lord’s: Rishabh Pant is one of the strongest links of the Indian cricket team on the current England tour. He suffered injuries during wicketkeeping and he stayed out of the entire ground for about one day. But when Team India needed him in batting, he washed the British despite the pain and completed his half -century off 86 balls. Not only this, this was the 17th of his Test career and the 13th Fifty Plus score in SENA (South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia) countries.
Ben Stokes conspired
Let us tell you that Rishabh Pant’s left -handed index finger was hurt. In such a situation, he was seen in trouble several times during the batting when shortPich balls came. In such a situation, Ben Stokes thought that if he is unable to dismiss Pant, he can injured him or scare him with negative bowling. The same thing happened that the English captain planned a back to back short bowling. But Pant gave him a befitting reply and completed his fifty by hitting a six. Rishabh Pant was seen in pain even after this, but he still stayed at the crease.
MS Dhoni’s record was equal
This is the 13th Pachasa of Rishabh Pant as a wicketkeeper in SENA countries. With this, he equalized MS Dhoni’s record in his 53rd innings. Dhoni had scored 13 half -centuries in army countries in 60 innings. Apart from this, 7 Test half -centuries have been recorded in the name of Farooq Engineer and 5 Test half -centuries in Kiran More in Army countries. Now Rishabh Pant has come on top in this list with Dhoni.
Great performance continues in the series
Rishabh Pant is seen in excellent form in this series. In both innings of the Leeds Test, he first scored history by scoring a century. After that he was dismissed after a good start in the first innings of Edgbaston Test but in the second innings he changed the flow of the match by a fiery 65 runs. Now despite the injury to Lords, he continued batting in pain and scored a brilliant half -century.
