Rishabh Pant made a powerful blast, the third batsman to do so after Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.
Rishabh Pant made a big blast
The batting of the Indian team was nothing special on the first day of the India vs Australia series which started from today. Team India was out after scoring only 150 runs. Leave alone a century, no batsman could even score a half-century. The biggest score for the team was made by Nitish Kumar Reddy, playing his first Test. He had 41 runs in his name. After this, the second highest score was 31 runs, which was scored by Rishabh Pant. Thanks to these 31 runs, Pant has created another blast. The work which till now only Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have been able to do, Pant has also done that work.
Pant included in the list of Rohit and Kohli
Actually, India vs Australia series is being played under the World Test Championship. The Indian team is currently at second place in its points table, but there is definitely a possibility of it going to the finals. Meanwhile, so far only three Indian batsmen have been able to score more than 2000 runs in the WTC i.e. World Test Championship. After Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, now Rishabh Pant’s name has also been included in it. This is the situation when Rishabh Pant was away from cricket for almost two years due to his injury. But he has achieved this new milestone by making a wonderful comeback.
Rohit Sharma is the Indian batsman who has scored the most runs in WTC.
The batsman who has scored the most runs for India in the ICC World Test Championship is Rohit Sharma. Who has scored 2685 runs in 37 matches so far. After this comes the name of Virat Kohli. So far, he has played 42 matches and scored 2432 runs in WTC. If we talk about Rishabh Pant, he has scored 2027 runs after playing 30 matches so far. No batsman from the rest of India has been able to do this. Shubman Gill is at fourth place in this list, who has scored 1800 runs in 29 matches. In such a situation, Pant’s achievement becomes even bigger.
Joe Root is far ahead of batsmen around the world
If we talk about the batsman who has scored the most runs in the World Test Championship, then the name here is Joe Root. Who is far ahead of batsmen from the rest of the world. He has scored 5325 runs in 61 matches so far. The second batsman does not even have four thousand runs in his name. From this it can be understood what kind of form Joe Root is in at present. Marnus Labuschagne is at second place, who has managed to score 3904 runs in 46 matches.
