New Delhi:
Former captain Ian Chappell feels Rishabh Pant’s presence would have given sleepless nights to Australia captain Pat Cummins but even then, India would start firm favorites in the upcoming four-match Test series beginning here on Thursday.
Pant met with a horrific car accident in December last year and is yet to be discharged from the hospital after undergoing multiple surgeries on his knee and heel.
“India are really going to really miss Rishabh Pant. The Australians will be happy. He is a counter attacker, the guy who keep you awake are guys who score quickly and changes game in one session. Pant was one such player,” Chappell said during an interaction organized by Star Sports, the official broadcasters of the Test series for the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
