‘Dangerous Player’ Rishabh Pant Believes In His Skills To Get The Job Done – Adam Gilchrist

Legendary Australia National Cricket Team wicketkeeper-batsman Adam Gilchrist has said that the young Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant is an aggressive player, but he also believes in his skills to get the job done for his team.

Pant performed brilliantly during the Edgbaston Test against England and he smashed over 200 runs in the game, including a century and a half-century. He failed to replicate his performance in the two games he played in the T20I series. Also, after getting out for a duck in the second ODI against England, he smashed a sensational ton in the third ODI to help India win the series.

He was rested for the three-match ODI series against West Indies National Cricket Team. However, he has returned to the squad after the break and he will be playing the five-match T20I series against West Indies, commencing on Friday.

Meanwhile, former Australia captain Gilchrist said that the “dangerous player” Pant can produce unexpected results for his team.

“I love wicketkeeper-batsmen, particularly left-handers. And Rishabh is a dangerous player, who can produce unexpected results. He’s so exciting to watch, that’s a sign of a quality player,” Gilchrist told Mid-Day. 

“Rishabh is aggressive, but while he takes risks, he also believes in his skills to get the job done. And he is doing that more consistently, which is fantastic.”

He is one of the most exciting cricketers to watch – Adam Gilchrist

Earlier, Gilchrist had labelled young Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Pant as one of the exciting cricketers to watch. He also said that the Indian wicketkeeper-batsman lights up the stage whenever he plays.

“He is one of the most exciting cricketers to watch. I think he just lights up a stage, and makes an electric atmosphere when he is playing. That is wonderful. The BCCI, the management and the selectors will just need to be patient with him. A few innings if he doesn’t score… they shouldn’t be too harsh on him. Because you don’t want to suppress his natural flair,” Gilchrist said at a New South Wales Government event.
