Team India wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant was part of Team India, who won the 2025 Champions Trophy. However, he was not included in the playing XI in any match. But now he has come into the limelight due to one of his statements. Actually, Pant is often known for his impeccable style and fearless batting. He also plays long shots in the best way. He has often been seen putting long shots with one hand. Now the wicketkeeper batsman himself has revealed this himself.
Pant also said that now people think more about playing in IPL. He says that the youth should think first about playing for the country. Pant told Geoographs that, I had only one dream since childhood. Playing for India, I never thought of playing in the IPL. I think people are paying more attention to IPL today. Certainly this is a big platform but I believe that if your goal is to play from the country then things will be favorable. And they also include IPL.
Pant is also known for his aggressive batting. His trademark shot is to hit a six with one hand. In doing this, the bat is often left by hand. At the same time, Pant told why this happens? He said that, I think this often happens because my lower hand grip is loose. I use my lower hand only for a little help. But sometimes it dominates. So I retain the grip of my upper hand.
Pant further said that, when the ball is too much or short pitch, it is not easy to shoot. The success rate in playing such shots is only 30 or 40 percent. But given the circumstances of the match, I am ready to take this risk. My mindset is similar.
