IND vs BAN: "This Has Been His Approach Whenever He Has Played Big Knocks"- Saba Karim On Rishabh Pant

Bangladesh Cricket Team had a topsy-turvy Day 1 against India. The Bangladeshi Tigers took 6 wickets but allowed Pujara & Shreyas to get their eye in as the duo formed a partnership of 149 runs. Earlier Rishabh Pant smashed a blistering knock of 46 runs in 45 balls where he struck 6 fours and 2 sixes.

The former skipper Virat Kohli had a rare off day where he was dismissed for 1 run by Taijul Islam. Taijul Islam was spot on with his line and length as the shrewd spinner took 3 scalps. Indian batters were a bit too much defensive as they allowed the bowlers to settle.

Saba Karim on Rishabh Pant

Saba Karim was seen interacting with Sony Sports and was asked about Rishabh Pant. “This has been his approach whenever he has played big knocks, whether it was in Australia or England. He plays attacking shots as soon as he comes to the middle, the field gets spread out, and then runs start coming easily.” said Saba Karim.

“So he was batting like that only today as well. Till the time he was there, he pushed the run rate up and batted freely. Cheteshwar Pujara also gained because of that. He (Pant) disrupted the spinners’ rhythm and discipline. That is the advantage of having this type of batter in your team.” he added.

Critical Day 2 for India

India would be well aware of the fact that they have to post a competitive total in excess of 350. With the overnight wickets of Pujara & Axar, Shreyas will have to make sure that he bats responsibly as earlier he was using his feet and was keen on smashing boundaries.

Bangladesh would be well aware of the fact that they have to bat last on this pitthe ch. We all have witnessed that pitch has started to deteriorate as there is uneven bounce. There are chances that Shakib may apply spin from both ends even with the new ball.
