Best reactions as Rishabh Pant scores a blistering century in the Cape Town test

Rishabh Pant put up a blistering show to notch up his career’s 4th test hundred on the 3rd day of Cape Town test match against South Africa. India lost two early wickets in the course of starting 10 minutes on the 3rd day morning session as out of form Cheteshwar Pujara(9) and Ajinkya Rahane(1) failed to impress and India were in a spot of bother at 58/4 and a lead of just 71 runs. Virat Kohli was watchful at one corner as Rishabh Pant walked to the crease and turned the favours in India’s favour thereafter.

He put up a 94 run stand with skipper Kohli to take out India from a bothering situation. After the departure of Kohli(29), he batted with India’s long tail and piled up his fourth test hundred to take India to a total of 198 runs and put up a total of 212 runs for the hosts.

Rishabh Pant has now made a habit of performing in the deciding test matches in the past as he scored a blistering 89* in the Gabba test to win it for India. Twitter was all praise for the wicket-keeping batsman as his ton kept India in the hunt to win it’s first ever test series in South Africa.
