Rishabh Pant’s Hitting Sixe Leaves Glenn Phillips in Shock:
Rishabh Pant’s bold approach was evident on Day 4 of the first Test between India and New Zealand at Bengaluru’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium. His fearless batting style stood out as he continued to attack without hesitation. Rather than adopting a cautious mindset, Pant embraced his aggressive play, delivering an exciting performance that kept spectators on edge. His audacity at the crease highlighted his distinctive style once again.
When Pant was on 90, New Zealand‘s Tim Southee bowled a short-pitched delivery during the 87th over. True to his aggressive style, Pant opted for a bold move. Dropping to one knee, he executed a powerful slog-sweep, sending the ball soaring over square leg for a towering 107-meter six. This incredible shot showcased Pant’s fearless approach, even when approaching a century, leaving the crowd in awe.
The shot was truly awe-inspiring. Glenn Phillips, positioned near the boundary, looked on in disbelief as the ball soared out of the ground, his jaw dropping in shock. Pant’s batting partner, KL Rahul, was briefly stunned, unable to conceal his surprise before breaking into a grin, clearly impressed by Pant’s fearless approach. The audacity of Pant’s towering six left both players and spectators amazed at his daring play.
