Fans Slam Rishabh Pant For His Innings Against Sri Lanka

SL vs IND: Fans Slam Rishabh Pant For His Innings Against Sri Lanka: The Gautam Gambhir era has begun. India are in Sri Lanka to feature in the 3-game T20I series, followed by the 3-game ODI series. Suryakumar Yadav is the new T20I captain of the side after Rohit Sharma retired from the shortest format after winning the T20 World Cup 2024. In the first T20I at Pallekele, Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to field first. India was off to a fast start from their openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and vice-captain Shubman Gill.

However, there was one dilemma for the coach and captain right before the start of the T20I series. Whom to play as the wicket-keeper batter in the T20I series vs Sri Lanka: Rishabh Pant or Sanju Samson? Pant has got plenty of chances in the T20I format but has not reciprocated the trust with his performances. He has played 65 innings in T20Is and has an average of 23.21 with a strike rate of 127.46. This is dismal. He played all the games in the T20 World Cup that India won and did not perform as was expected from Pant.

On the other hand, Samson has really given his all in the few chances that he has got. He was also Man of the Match in the last T20I that he played against Zimbabwe. However, he was selected in the playing XI in the first T20I against Sri Lanka and Pant was again provided the opportunity. Pant faltered in this game yet again with his strike rate. He scored 49 runs off 33 balls but at one stage he was 24 off 26 balls. Fans on Twitter reacted to the innings of Rishabh Pant.

India Playing XI: Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Suryakumar Yadav (c), Rishabh Pant (wk), Riyan Parag, Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Siraj
