India v/s Sri Lanka 1st Test: Rishabh Pant hammers Lasith Embuldeniya for 22 runs in an over

Jeremy Caroll

Embuldeniya has wreaked havoc in the Indian camp for his impressive bowling but the left-arm spinner seemed no match for Rishabh Pant. He came to the crease when India needed a formidable partnership. Rishabh Pant ticked all the boxes while batting with Shreyas Iyer and Ravindra Jadeja, partnering more than 100 runs in the session. The left-handed batsman has suddenly broken his patience as he chases Lasith Embuleniyo for two consecutive sixes and two fours in an over; targeting the bowler for nearly 21 runs. The batsman suddenly seems to have accelerated the innings, reaching 82 off just 83 deliveries.
