Australia vs India 2018: 5 unnoticed records from the T20I series

#4 Pant became the second Indian Wicket keeper to get out for a duck

Pant was in good form by scoring his first T20 fifty against Windies before the Australian series and much was expected from him

MS Dhoni has been a prominent feature in the Indian batting line up in the past decade and has been in the T20 side for most of the tours.

Due to the doubts concerning about his future, India decided to drop him from the T20 side for the Australian tour.

Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik were selected in place of the former Indian captain, and the Delhi lad took the role of Wicketkeeper.

Pant was in good form by scoring his first T20 fifty against Windies before the Australian series and much was expected from him. He scored a 15-ball 20 in the first match in which India lost by four runs.

During the third match, India needed 58 when he came to bat, but he soon got out for a golden duck trying to pull a short ball of Andrew Tye.

He gloved the ball to the hands of his opposite number Alex Carey. Incidentally, this was the second time where an Indian wicketkeeper got out for a duck in T20 international match.

The first one was MS Dhoni in India’s first ever T20 international match against South Africa in 2006.
