Pathan’s big prediction about Pant-

Pant’s strike rate is his biggest strength. During the second Test in Bangalore, Pant hit a half-century in 28 balls, which is the fastest fifty by any Indian in a Test match. Apart from this, Rishabh Pant also managed to impress behind the wicket, due to which he received the Player of the Series award. Irfan Pathan praises the young player a lot and also makes a big prediction about him. Former cricketer Pathan has said that Pant will surpass Mahendra Singh Dhoni as India‘s most successful Test wicket-keeper batsman.

Will become India’s greatest Test keeper batsman – Pathan

Irfan said on Star Sports, “He is just a 24 year old boy, and at such a young age, his cricket has seen so much improvement. I believe he has a long way to go till retirement, You will see him play 10 years of international cricket, he will become India’s highest run-scorer wicketkeeper-batsman in Tests, I have no doubt about that.”

‘Pant will leave behind Dhoni’s Test career’

Former Indian captain MS Dhoni ended his Test career with 4876 runs in 90 matches. At the age of 24, Pant has already scored 1920 runs in 30 matches in the longest format. Therefore, Pathan’s prediction has a very high probability of coming true. Meanwhile, Australian legend Adam Gilchrist holds the record for most runs in Tests as a wicket-keeper.

The game has improved to the next level-

The great Adam has 5570 runs in 96 Tests in his tally. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see whether Pant can overtake him or not. Meanwhile, Irfan congratulated Pant for playing a calculated shot instead of just hitting hard. “He now tries to find a way to stay on the pitch, not just try to hit. The record breaking innings we saw, it wasn’t like he didn’t play defensive shots at all. There was defense as well,” he said. Was.”
