The Indian team is currently on a tour of England, where it has come to play a 5 -match Test series against the hosts. Three matches have been played in this series so far, in which the Indian team is trailing 2–1. So far, a great game has been seen between the two teams, in which the most discussion has been from Team India’s star wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant. Pant has performed brilliantly with the bat in this series and has also managed to play 2 century innings and 2 half -century innings. Also, Pant has achieved such an achievement in the history of the World Test Championship, which no player has been able to do before.

Rishabh Pant is currently counted among the most dangerous batsmen of world cricket, in which he often makes the match completely unilateral on his bat. Pant has become the first player in the history of the World Test Championship, who have been successful in hitting 15 or more sixes in the four versions so far. Pant has played only three matches in the fourth edition of WTC, in which he has hit 15 sixes. In the first edition, Pant hit a total of 22 sixes, while in the second version he managed to hit 16 sixes. In the third edition, a total of 16 sixes came out of Pant’s bat.

Pant has a chance to overtake Sehwag in Manchester Test
The Indian team is to play the fourth match of the Test series against England at Manchester ground from July 23. Whether or not Rishabh Pant will play in this match, it will largely depend on his finger injury. If Pant plays in this match, he will have the opportunity to break the record of hitting the most sixes for India in Test cricket, which is currently the name of Virender Sehwag, who has hit a total of 90 sixes, while Pant currently has a total of 88 sixes.
