IND vs ENG / After 23 years, Pant has a chance to repeat history, one batsman has been able to do this

IND vs ENG: Indian cricket team's star wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant is in tremendous form at the moment and is impressing everyone with his explosive batting. In the recent Test series against England, he performed brilliantly and scored centuries in both the innings, proving once again that he is a big player in big matches. His presence on the field itself creates excitement among the fans.

Pant's historic innings

Even though India lost the first Test against England by 5 wickets, Rishabh Pant became the troubleshooter for the team in both the innings. He played a brilliant innings of 134 runs in the first innings and 118 runs in the second innings. As long as Pant was at the crease, the Indian team was hoping for victory. Now all eyes are on the second Test match, where another big innings is expected from Pant.

Opportunity to equal Rahul Dravid's record

If Rishabh Pant scores a century in the second Test as well, he will become only the second Indian batsman to score three consecutive Test centuries on England soil. Earlier, this feat was achieved by Rahul Dravid in the year 2002. Dravid then scored three consecutive Test centuries at Nottingham (115), Leeds (148), and The Oval (217). Now after 23 years, Pant has a golden opportunity to create history.

Pant's achievements in Test cricket

Rishabh Pant made his Test cricket debut in the year 2018 and since then he has become the backbone of Team India's batting. In the 44 Test matches played so far, he has scored 3200 runs, including 8 centuries and 15 half-centuries. His aggressive style and ability to perform under pressure make him special.

The failure of the bowlers led to the loss

In the first Test, the Indian batsmen performed brilliantly overall. Despite scoring 471 runs in the first innings and 364 in the second, the Indian team had to face defeat. The main reason for this was the average performance of the bowlers. Jasprit Bumrah took five wickets in the first innings, but he too could not make a special impact in the second innings. The failure of other bowlers led to Team India's defeat.

Will they be able to create history?

Now all eyes are on the second Test match. Will Rishabh Pant be able to equal Dravid's record by scoring his third consecutive century? Will the Indian bowlers be able to perform better this time and lead the team to victory? The answers to these questions will be found soon, but one thing is certain - Rishabh Pant's batting is the brightest star of Indian cricket at the moment.
