Before the 5-Test series against England, the Indian team went through a period of major change. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma took off the white jersey forever. After the retirement of both the veterans from Tests, the captain's position was vacant. In such a situation, young Shubman Gill was handed over the reins of the Indian Test team. Also, wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant was appointed vice-captain.
The bat did not work in the IPL.
Rishabh Pant's performance in the recently concluded IPL 2025 was shameful. Pant, the captain of Lucknow Super Giants, scored 269 runs in 14 matches. During this, he also scored a half-century as well as 1 century. After a bad IPL season, Pant has now reached England. Pant has a chance to create history in this series. Not only this, he can also break the record of former Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
Made his debut in 2018
Left-handed batsman Rishabh Pant made his Test debut against England in August 2018. He becomes very dangerous on foreign soil. He faces challenges very well and has rescued the team from crises many times. If Pant scores a century in the Headingley Test, he will have 7 centuries in Tests. With this, he will become the Indian wicketkeeper to score the most centuries in Tests. In this case, he will break Mahendra Singh Dhoni's record. Dhoni hit 6 sixes in 90 Tests played in his career.
Can break Dhoni's record
In SENA countries (South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia), Pant has scored 1,681 runs in 48 innings of 26 Test matches at an average of 37.35. During this, he scored four centuries and five half-centuries. He needs just one fifty to become the highest run-scoring Asian wicketkeeper-batsman in these circumstances. In this way, he will surpass Dhoni's 1,731 runs in 32 matches and 60 innings at an average of 31.47.
Pant has so far scored 511 runs as a wicketkeeper in England. On the other hand, Dhoni scored 778 runs as a visiting wicketkeeper. In such a situation, if Pant scores 267 runs during the series, he will break Dhoni's record and become the highest run-scoring visiting wicketkeeper-batsman.
