Trying To Give Pant As Long As Possible To Recover Ahead Of Manchester Test, Says Ten Doeschate
Manchester Test: Ahead of a do-or-die fourth Test against England in Manchester, India are sweating over the availability of vice-captain Rishabh Pant, who suffered a left index finger injury while keeping in Lord’s Test.
Assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate said the team is giving Pant as much time as possible to recover and be fit to take the field when the Manchester Test starts on July 23. Pant, who made 74 and nine at Lord’s was in visible pain after being hit on left index finger and did not keep wickets for the rest of the Test.
After India suffered a 22-run defeat to go 1-2 down in the five-match series, captain Shubman Gill had said Pant will be fit to play in Manchester. “He will bat in Manchester before the Test. I don't think one is going to keep Rishabh out of the Test, no matter what. He batted with quite a lot of pain in the third Test and it's only going to get easier and easier on his finger.”
