Eyes on Rishabh Pant 

All eyes will be on Rishabh Pant, the captain of the Indian cricket team. He is going through a rough patch with the bat. Despite making impact in red-ball cricket, the wicket-keeper and batter has not really left any impact in the shorter formats of the game. When he arrived in international circuit, it was felt that he would become a solid white-ball player but he is yet to bloom in either 50-over or 20-over formats. Pant has had poor outing in this series also. In the first T20, he scored 29 off 16 balls, which remains his best effort. In the second T20, he could only manage 5 runs from 7 balls. In the 3rd T20, he scored 6 off 8 balls. Time has come for the captain to stand up and deliver or else his seat could for the T20 World Cup could be up for grabs soon.
