India Today
India tour of South Africa: Rishabh Pant threw his wicket away on Day 3 of the Johannesburg Test when he tried to attack Kagiso Rabada in just the 3rd delivery he faced. Pant was criticised for the shot that saw him depart for 0.
Former India opener Aakash Chopra questioned Rishabh Pant's approach on Day 3 of the 2nd Test against South Africa, saying the young wicketkeeper let Team India down by throwing his wicket away at a crucial juncture. Pant got out for 0, trying to hit a charged up Kagiso Rabada out of the Wanderers by skipping down in just the 3rd delivery of his knock.
Rishabh Pant was slammed by Sunil Gavaskar on-air as the former captain said there is no excuse that the wicketkeeper can give for playing that shot and getting out when India needed someone to occupy the crease as Kagiso Rabada had gotten the wickets of well-set Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane in quick succession.
