Star India batter Rishabh Pant has been catching headlines as of late; the star batter has been struggling to perform in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, which has seen him become the centre of attention for many critics. However, Pant is known for his fearless batting, and that is what was on display on day 2 of the fifth Test of the ongoing series.

After India scored 185 runs in the first innings and limited Australia to a score of 181, the visitors came out to bat in the second innings, and as has been the case throughout the series, the Indian top order failed to go big. Ace batter Virat Kohli walked out to bat but fell cheaply on a score of six runs in 12 deliveries.

Pant came out to bat shortly after Kohli’s wicket and instantly made his intentions clear. Stepping out against Scott Boland, without a second thought, Pant charged down the pitch and launched the ball over deep midwicket for a stunning six. The clip of the same has been going viral all over social media.

Pant departs for 61, giving India a fighting chance

Speaking of the ongoing game between Australia and India, coming out to bat in the second innings. Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul scored 22 and 13 runs, respectively. Shubman Gill added 13 runs on the board as well, with Kohli scoring six runs.

However, after the top-order’s failure, Rishabh Pant came out to bat and amassed 61 runs in 33 deliveries. Pant’s knock helped India reach a reasonable total. Pant’s knock could be crucial for team India as they look to post a big total on the board for Australia to chase down in the second innings.
