In the Leeds Test, Indian wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant once again caught everyone’s attention with his batting. He scored 134 runs in the first innings. At the same time, in the second innings also worked to handle the team. Pant, who is always famous for scoring runs in an aggressive and fiery style, was seen in a different color in the leads this time. He tried to batting defensive, which was completely opposite to his natural game. But during this experiment, he not only got hurt, but also got to hear a fun comment.
Pant got injured in the affair of Tamiz
In fact, in the 33rd over of the second innings of the Leeds Test, a ball of England fast bowler Bridan Cars hit Pant’s thigh. The incident happened when Pant was trying to defend the ball. After the injury, Pant said lightly, ‘The ball is missing in the process of playing with Tamiz. Hearing this, not only his fellow players, but also commentators and fans laughed. This statement of Pant brought his cool and funny nature once again.
But Pant did not stop here. He immediately said goodbye to his defensive attitude and showed his natural aggressive style on the next ball. On the next ball of Bridan Cars, Pant brilliantly hit a four in front. Everyone was surprised to see that. He played this shot against the fast bowler, which is less seen in Test cricket. Let me tell you, Pant also scored the initial runs in the first innings with a very defensive approach. But later he was seen playing his natural game, due to which he stayed in a century.
134 runs were scored in the first innings
In the first innings of the Leeds Test, Rishabh Pant scored a total of 134 runs, including 12 fours and 6 sixes. This was Pant’s 7th century in the Test, out of which he has scored 4 centuries against England. The special thing is that he has scored 5 centuries of his Test career outside India, which makes him different from the rest of the players.
