Rishabh Pant Draws Comparisons to Virender Sehwag: Former Pakistan Cricketer Praises His Aggressive Style

Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali has likened Rishabh Pant's aggressive batting style to that of the legendary Virender Sehwag. Pant, who recently returned to Test cricket following a serious accident, impressed with a century against Bangladesh, demonstrating a fearless approach reminiscent of Sehwag's.

On his YouTube channel, Basit noted that both players use aggression as a form of defense, stating, "There are two batters in India... Rishabh Pant came, whose defence is attack." Pant's recent performance included a 109-run innings filled with powerful strokes, helping India set a daunting target of 515 runs. His knock featured 13 fours and four sixes, showcasing his skill against both pace and spin.

The cricketing community is rallying behind Pant as he continues to make a significant impact on the game.
