Former Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwary has hailed Rishabh Pant’s unique captaincy style following his return to the Indian cricket team during the T20 World Cup 2024.
Pant, who had taken a significant break from cricket after a car accident, impressed fans with both his leadership and batting performance.
Scoring 171 runs across eight matches with a strike rate of 127.61, Pant showcased his adaptability and sharp decision-making skills.
His 109-run knock from 128 balls against Bangladesh further underlined his ability to handle pressure, even though he was dismissed by Mehidy Hasan Miraz in the 56th over.
Tiwary highlighted that while Pant’s approach to captaincy is distinct, Shubman Gill seems to be the front-runner for the national team’s future captaincy, given his recent leadership roles.
