India decided to punt on Rishabh Pant in this Test to man the wicket-keeping duties and on his first day as a gloveman, the 20-year-old had a dream time behind the wickets, claiming five catches to start his career off to the most incredible start.
The management got in Pant after Dines Karthik did not quite deliver in the first two Tests and if Pant can contribute with the bat in the second innings, then he would be the firm favourite to start in the remaining matches as well.
