When you look at this list, you might be probably looking at the top order of the Delhi Capitals team. Rishabh Pant has done everything that one could ask for in his limited career so far as far as the Test format (where he averages 49 in 9 matches) is concerned whereas, he hasn't made much impact in ODI or T20I till now.

He is being rated highly by many of the legends, most notably Ricky Ponting has hailed Pant as "another Adam Gilchrist" which is such a huge compliment that too in the early part of his career.

With MS Dhoni likely to hang his boots after the World Cup, Rishabh is a leading candidate at the moment to take over the gloves in all the formats when the former does decide to call on his career. His keeping needs to improve but that will happen as time goes on.

He has already hit 2 overseas tons (one each in England and Australia) to his in a short career and we can hope that he adds to that tally. Pant is all to create a niche for himself and will be a huge name in the game of cricket.
