When Pant Is Set And Going, There’s No Limit To What He Can Do: Biju George
Nassau County International Cricket Stadium: During India’s optional nets session at Cantiague Park, Long Island on Friday, Rishabh Pant enthusiastically practiced his reverse-sweeps, while being closely observed by batting coach Vikram Rathour and head coach Rahul Dravid, who were assessing his aggressive stroke-play abilities.
It came as no surprise when Pant, during India’s warm-up match against Bangladesh, displayed his trademark unorthodox shots on an up and down drop-in pitch at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium. The left-handed batter scored a fluent 53 runs off 32 balls before retiring out, to be the biggest takeaway for India from their 60-run win in the warm-up game.
Pant struggled initially after coming in to bat at number three following Sanju Samson’s dismissal, scoring just one run off six balls. But he rapidly advanced by hitting three sixes off Shakib Al Hasan, including one coming off an audacious reverse-sweep.
