New DelhiJust as we will not be able to forget the defeat against New Zealand, similarly we will always remember the excellent batting of Rishabh Pant. Rishabh batted amazingly during the entire series. Former Test wicketkeeper and selector Saba Karim, who was commentating in all three Test matches, made Rishabh Pant tough by bringing him in the category where we keep Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli.

Former wicket keeper Saba Karim has said in a conversation with News 18 that players like Rishabh Pant come once in 100 years and keep making us feel his threat again and again. Saba says that during this series, all three matches were played on three different types of pitches. In Bangalore the pitch was seaming while in Pune and Mumbai the ball was spinning. The world's biggest batsmen were troubled on every pitch except one. And that batsman was Rishabh Pant. No one could have made a comeback after injury and the kind of batting Rishabh did.

Whether the pitch is seaming or spinning, wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant's bat is unstoppable. Pant scored 261 runs in 6 innings of the series at an average of 43.50. He played innings of more than 60 runs twice and was out once at 99. He scored half-centuries in both the innings of the Mumbai Test match. Pant scored 60 runs in the first innings and 64 runs in the second innings. Pant won everyone's hearts with his strong defense and footwork against the spinners. However, after the Mumbai match, Pant has posted a story on his Instagram and said that bad times come in life so that it can prepare us for good times. Pant wrote, Life is a series of seasons. When you are frustrated, remember that progress in life happens in different time cycles. Embrace the bad times, knowing that they are preparing you for the good times.
