4th Test: Boland, Lyon Take Out Pant And Jadeja As India Reach 244/7
With Nitish Kumar Reddy looking great again in his footwork and proactiveness to be 40 not out and Washington Sundar giving him company at five not out, India would be heavily banking on the duo to first cross 275 and avoid the follow-on before reducing the deficit as much as possible.
Resuming from 164/5, a measured Pant collected boundaries off Pat Cummins and Boland, while surviving a caught behind appeal, as replays showed the ball brushing his elbow, and two mix-ups with Jadeja almost ending up in a run-out. But in the 56th over, Pant began to unleash some aggression – he tried going for the big shot off Boland but copped a blow on his body. On the next ball, Pant went across for the scoop shot again but got a thick top-edge edge, and was caught at third man for 28.
