Rishabh Pant put his body on the line: Irfan Pathan on gritty knock at SCG

India Today  

Former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan heaped praise on Rishabh Pant for his valiant innings on the opening day of the fifth and final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Speaking on Star Sports, Pathan described Pant’s innings as one where the wicketkeeper-batter "put his body on the line" to deliver a crucial performance for India. Starc’s short-pitched delivery in the 35th over left a visible blood clot on Pant’s arm, and the helmet blow prompted immediate medical attention. Pant’s gladiatorial knock, much like Cheteshwar Pujara’s efforts in the 2020-21 series, reaffirmed his role as a game-changer for India in Test cricket.
