Rishabh Pant Taken To Test Cricket Like A Duck To Water: Dravid
Border Gavaskar Trophy: Former India head coach Rahul Dravid, while sharing his thoughts on Rishabh Pant’s match-winning 89 not out against Australia at the Gabba during the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, has said that the wicketkeeper batter has "taken to Test cricket like a duck to water" and called his performance in the red-ball format "sensational."
Pant’s heroic innings came on the final day of the fourth and final Test, with India chasing a daunting target of 328. His counterattacking style not only secured a historic 3-wicket victory but also ended Australia’s 32-year unbeaten streak at the Gabba, sealing the series 2-1 for India.
"I think Rishabh's was an incredible performance. Watching Rishabh there and chasing to get 89 to win that Test match at the Gabba, with everything on the line and such a depleted side, to put in that kind of performance under that kind of pressure—truly sensational," Dravid said to to Star Sports.
