Rishabh Pant Failed to Impress Again in 3rd T20 Match

Virat Kohli played a big bet in the third T20 match in Mumbai with Rishabh Pant. In this match, Rohit and Rahul gave India a strong start to the partnership for the first wicket. When Rohit was out, Virat Kohli sent Rishabh Pant to bat in his place. Rishabh had a great chance as the team had already got a strong base and here they had to score more runs for the team by playing aggressive batting, but he failed completely.

Virat Kohli sent Rishabh Pant to bat at number three this time. Perhaps he was confident that in the last match, the way Shivam Dubey played a good innings when he got a chance, Rishabh will also do something similar but it could not happen. Rishabh Pant completely broke the captain's confidence and was caught by Jason Holder off Kieron Pollard at zero. He faced just two balls. Rishabh had a great chance to play a big innings here, but he could not succeed in it.

This was the third time in international T20 cricket when Rishabh Pant was dismissed for zero. At the same time, as a wicketkeeper, he is the batsman who gets out the most number of times. This has happened three times with Rishabh, while MS Dhoni has been dismissed as a wicketkeeper once in international T20 cricket. However, Rishabh had earlier scored a quick 18 runs in the first match against West Indies in this series and an unbeaten 33 in the second match.
