Team India’s wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant has big shoes of legendary MS Dhoni to fill in the coming days. Immensely talented Pant has shared that he is trying to take one game at a time and improve himself.

Pant went to West Indies as the first-choice wicket-keeper with MS Dhoni taking a break from cricket. The Delhi-born cricketer disappointed as he failed to rise to the occasion. He managed to score only one fifty in the T20Is and fared poorly in the ODIs and Tests.

Rishabh Pant’s dismal show has raised speculation with former cricketers urging the management to try out different options available. Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson have been in the wings for quite some time now who have done reasonably well in the domestic circuit.
