IND vs Eng: Team India was struggling with the problem of injured players before the fourth Test in Manchester, but Rishabh Pant’s injury during the Test made the Indian team even more troubled. Pant tried to play reverse sweep shots during India’s first innings and during this time he suffered a leg injury. The injury was so serious that he had to use golf carts to go out of the field. The medical report later revealed that there was a fracture in his foot finger. But despite this, Pant did not give up and returned to the field for batting again. He also scored a brilliant half -century, scoring 358 runs in the first innings.
After India’s first innings, England took a big lead of 311 runs by scoring a brilliant 669 runs. In response to this huge score of England, Team India has scored 174 for 2 wickets in their second innings till the end of the fourth day play. Both Shubman Gill and KL Rahul are unbeaten by scoring half -centuries. Now before the 5th day play, everyone has a question in mind whether Pant will enter the field to bat.
Will Rishabh Pant play in this injury too?
Meanwhile, a big news has come out about the injured Rishabh Pant. Team India’s batting coach Sitanshu Kotak has made it clear that Pant will enter the field to bat on the 5th day. The coach also praised KL Rahul and Shubman Gill’s batting.
There was speculation on the return of Pant, who has been suffering from injury for some time, but now the situation has become clear from the coach’s statement. Kotak said that “Rishabh Pant will bat tomorrow.” Kotak appreciated Rahul and Gill’s strong partnership and said that KL Rahul has been very impressive in this entire series. Rahul showed excellent restraint in difficult circumstances and scored for the team.
Gill showed understanding
The coach also praised the change in the batting of Shubman Gill. He said, “From the Australia series to this England series, there is a big difference in Gill’s batting. He took a very good decision that when to attack and when to stop. This wisdom makes him a special batsman. At present, India is 137 runs behind England. The last day Team India will try to save the match, so that the last Test can be won in the series and the last Test can be equal in the series.
