The 23-year-old wicketkeeper–batsman Rishabh Pant has found himself under the scanner of critics after he failed to perform once again with his bat in the Pink ball warm-up match ahead of the upcoming first of the four-match test series.
Pant was already out from the limited series owning to his poor form and fitness. However, he got the chance to prove himself in the first practice Test match in Adelaide but he failed terribly to perform with the bat as he was dismissed after scoring just 5 runs off 11 balls he faced.
It was a great opportunity for Rishabh to give the best of his abilities and cement his place in the playing XI as India was in a bad place while struggling at 102 runs with four batsmen back to the pavilion.
But once again Rishabh failed to perform and walked back to the pavilion. Besides Pant, Wriddhiman Saha was also given the opportunity and he gave in his best in the first practice match and helped the team to seize the day.
With his poor performance, Rishabh has confirmed Wriddhiman Saha’s place in the upcoming first Test match, which will kickstart on December 17 in Adelaide.
Meanwhile disappointed fans on social media are trolling Rishabh for failing to as he gave a series of inconsistent performances. Fans are trolling him left, right, and center, many have even come up with hilarious memes and jokes, trolling the keeper-batsman.
Here, check out how twitterati are trolling Pant:
I think Rishabh Pant saw this tweet and stopped whatever he was doing as well. https://t.co/ZaYyvMLMw5
