India vs England, 5th Test stat attack: Why Rishabh Pant’s incredible century is truly special | Cricket News
NEW DELHI: Rishabh Pant led Team India‘s spirited comeback from 98/5 with a blistering hundred on the first day of the rescheduled 5th Test at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Friday.
Putting up a flamboyant show, Pant showed a lot of daredevilry in his knock and played a lot of unorthodox shots to notch up his century off just 89 balls, the fastest by an Indian wicketkeeper batter.
Pant’s 222-run partnership with Ravindra Jadeja took the wind out of the English sails and stole all the momentum from the home team. The top two leading run-scorers for India in Test cricket in 2022 took full advantage of the ball getting soft and feasted on a ground known to leak boundaries at a brisk rate.
Pant crossed many milestones with one of the best counter-attacking knocks ever in a Test match on foreign soil.
