Rishabh Pant Should Focus On Red-ball Cricket, Will Have To Wait For Chance In White-ball Games: Gautam Gambhir

By IANS News December 29, 2022 • 17:56 PM View: 1379

In 2022, Pant scored 364 runs in 25 T20Is, averaging 21.41 at a strike-rate of 132.84. In 12 ODIs this year, he made 336 runs, averaging 37.33 and strike-rate of 96.55. But in Tests, Pant has been at his best, making 680 runs in 12 innings at an average of 61.81 and strike-rate of 90.90.

Former India opener Gautam Gambhir thinks that Pant needs to focus on red-ball cricket while he waits to have a chance at making the cut for white-ball cricket. "That's why he's not part of both squads. His white-ball numbers are not that great as compared to his Test numbers."
