‘Super seniors made a lasting impression’: Rishabh Pant reflects on India debut alongside star-studded line-up

Pant’s debut for India was in a T20I match against England in February 2017 at Bangalore’s Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Rishabh Pant, the wicketkeeper-batsman, reminisced about his debut for the Indian cricket team, expressing his heartfelt appreciation for the warm reception he received following his remarkable performance in the 2016 U-19 World Cup.

The left-handed player then disclosed how the experienced teammates contributed to his sense of belonging.

During his debut, Rishabh Pant stepped onto the field in the penultimate over and managed to score 5 not out off 3 balls, including a boundary.

The Indian team displayed their dominance by amassing a colossal total of 202/6 on the scoreboard. This remarkable achievement was made possible by the outstanding performances of Suresh Raina and MS Dhoni, both of whom scored half-centuries.

The highlight of the match came later when leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal showcased his exceptional skills. Chahal’s mesmerizing spell resulted in a remarkable six-wicket haul, with figures of 6/25.
