In his fourth Test in Australia, Rishabh Pant has gone where no Indian wicketkeeper has before – scoring a hundred on Australia soil.
Pant, 21, reached three figures on day two of the fourth Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground to surpass Farokh Engineer‘s 89 as the best score by an Indian wicketkeeper in Australia.
Pant had not managed a big score in six innings on tour, but today marched to his century as India marched towards a huge total. The milestone came when he swung his 137th delivery wide of midwicket for four. Pant’s second Test hundred took his run tally past Virat Kohli’s 282.
