CRICKET is a game ! – there have been Successes as also failures BUT a biased Pundit blamed him ‘Stupid! Stupid! Stupid .. .. ..’
In the last two innings, Rishab Pant played 100 deliveries ! - on a pitch like Sydney where on close of day 2 – 26 wickets have fallen there is enough enough days to complete – so mere occupation is not going to help.
Pant today started with a six off the first delivery he faced and hit a half-century in just 29 balls – that is his 15th Test fifty. What an excellent counter-attack 61 off 33 – six 4s and four 6s.
The second photo is from that incredible and indelible moment - Gabba 2021 when Pant helped India conquer.
