Former Australian fast bowler Glenn McGrath praised Team India wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant. Moreover, McGrath likened Pant to former Australian wicketkeeper batsman Adam Gilchrist. Gilchrist is one of the most successful wicketkeeper batsmen in the world. Former Australian captain Ricky Ponting has some similarities between Pant and Gilchrist, which McGrath also considered. Pant, a left-handed batsman, had a good start in Test cricket, but was later dropped from the team due to poor form. Pant is out after playing bad shots several times, for which he has been criticized.

Pant did not get a chance to play in the ODI and T20 International series in Australia. In the first Test, Wriddhiman was also given the opportunity. Both innings of the Adelaide Test were dismissed cheaply and Pant was later included in the Melbourne Test XI. In the Melbourne Test, Pant came to bat in the sixth on the second day of the match and scored 29 runs off 40 balls, including three. He looked good in touch, but couldn’t turn a good start into a big innings. McGrath praised Pant as Gilchrist escapes by looking at this player. McGrath on Sony Sports, ‘Rishabh Pant reminds him of Adam Gilchrist. He always wants to play a shot and is not afraid to shoot any kind of thing. If you look at them in the crease, they are both players doing something. ‘

Speaking to India’s former fast bowler Ajit Agarkar, Pant should be supported to play more international matches. He’s a good player, he can’t be ignored. He said, ‘Glenn is like Adam Gilchrist. So why don’t you put them on the team if they have that X factor. He’s a young player, if you see such talent in a player you have to give him some time. There will be some mistakes from him, but you have to watch him because you win the team.
