Rishabh Pant's Aggressive Play in the Test Match

On Day 4 of the match, following Shubman Gill's dismissal, Rishabh Pant entered the field to partner with a well-established KL Rahul. India aimed to extend their lead in the third innings, and Pant quickly made an impact. He struck a boundary off Chris Woakes on just his second delivery, showcasing his characteristic aggressive style.


Pant's reputation for playing bold cricket, particularly in Test matches, endears him to fans. However, his attacking approach sometimes carries risks. This was evident in the 33rd over when Brydon Carse delivered a fuller ball outside off. Pant attempted a slog shot, but the ball edged off his bat and headed towards fine leg.


Fortunately for Pant, there was no fielder positioned at fine leg, allowing the ball to race away for four runs. Had there been a fielder, he might have faced the possibility of losing his wicket. Immediately after this incident, KL Rahul was seen advising Pant:


“Ball achhe se dekho (watch the ball properly).”


Pant responded with his usual humor:


“Haanji, aisa nahi hai aise hi ghuma du, ball achhe se dekhta hoon (Yes yes, it’s not like I swing blindly, I do watch the ball properly).”
