The Indian team has once again made history by reaching the finals of the ICC World Test Championship 2019-21 after winning the four test match series against England by 3-1. There is no doubt that the Indian young cricketers are using the opportunities to the maximum and leaving no stone unturned in proving their talent.
One such talent is Rishabh Pant who used to be a favourite target of the Indian Twitterati as he failed many times in the past not just with the bat but with the gloves as well. However in the recent past, he has shown a lot of improvement and as he got the chance to play in the test series against Australia, he ensured that he performed so well that it became difficult for the selectors to replace him.
Rishabh Pant continued with his sublime form in the England series as well and presently he is being showered with love and affection by the Indian cricket fans because of his beautiful knock of 101 runs. When Pant went to bat, India was in a difficult position with 80 runs on the board and four dismissals but he stayed calm and didn’t let the dismissal of Rohit Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin affect him. Later on, he shared a partnership of 113 runs with Washington Sundar (96*) and helped his team in posting a good total of 365 runs on the board.
Nowadays an old photo of Rishabh Pant is going viral in which he is seen with former Indian pacer Ashish Nehra. The pic shows young Rishabh Pant taking Nehra’s autograph on bat and the online users are comparing the photo with the Indian skipper Virat Kohli’s pic in which he is seen taking an award from Ashish Nehra.
It seems that the online users are feeling Ashish Nehra’s blessings have played an important role in the success of both Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant.
