Jadeja Highlights Pant’s Positive Impact
India and Australia are set for an exciting clash in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024, beginning November 22 in Perth. This marks the first five-Test series between the two sides in over 30 years.
India is chasing history, aiming for a third consecutive Test series win in Australia. However, the hosts are eager to reclaim the trophy and end India’s dominance. To secure a direct spot in the 2025 World Test Championship final at Lord’s, India must win all four Tests.
Australia hasn’t won a home series against India since 2014-15, losing in 2018-19 and 2020-21. But with recent victories over India in the WTC final and the 50-over World Cup final, they are poised to challenge.
Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja praised Rishabh Pant ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, set to begin on November 22.
Jadeja emphasised Pant’s ability to keep the dressing room atmosphere lively with his humour and energy.
Speaking to 7 Cricket, Jadeja called Pant one of the world’s best cricketers and expressed confidence in his match-winning capabilities.
“Whenever Pant is around, he always makes everyone laugh. He’s an exciting cricketer and one of the best,” Jadeja stated.
Pant’s ability to stay calm under pressure and his heroics in previous tours have made him a fan favourite.
His performance at Gabba in 2021 is still fresh in the memories of cricket enthusiasts worldwide.
