Rishabh Pant smashed his way to a brilliant 97 on Thursday against Gujarat Lions to give his team, Delhi Daredevils (DD), some hope to qualify for the Play-Offs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) in what was one of the best knocks in the tournament’s history. Pant displayed his hitting prowess to find boundaries and sixes at will to register his fifty in 27 balls and scoring 97 runs in just 43 balls.
During the blistering knock, his boundary hitting ability was at it best, and The prodigy caught the attention of some big names from Indian cricket on Twitter, including Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag. Tendulkar went on to say that it was one of the best innings he had seen in the IPL history.
“One of the best Innings I have seen in the IPL & that includes all 10 seasons. @RishabPant777,” he tweeted.
