Rishabh Pant Test career has been a revelation of sorts right from the day he wore the white Test flannels. He started off his career with a six and has adopted an aggressive approach to his batting.

He has effected 19 dismissals and equalled Syed Kirmani's record of causing most dismissals by an Indian in a series. He would have easily added a few more dismissals but he has dropped a few which has resulted in questioning his keeping technique.

Although it is early days for the young Delhi lad, his technique of getting up early has been questioned by the likes of Adam Gilchrist, who feels it might be difficult for Pant to hold on to the catches on the slow low wickets of the subcontinent.
