"He Is Reinventing the Game" - Australian Legend's Massive Praise for Rishabh Pant After ENG vs IND 2025 1st Test

Greg Chappell, former captain of Australia, applauded Rishabh Pant for scoring a hundred in each innings during the opening Test against England at Leeds on June 25, 2025.
Pant achieved this as India lost the Test by five wickets, while Chappell also noted the team missed chances and that captain Shubman Gill started well despite the result.
Chappell described Pant as a match-winner who scores at a very fast rate with strokes not found in the MCC coaching manual, making him unpredictable and exciting to watch.
Pant scored 134 off 178 balls and 118 off 140 in the Test, becoming the second wicketkeeper in history to record hundreds in both innings and surpassing MS Dhoni's six Test hundreds.
Chappell said Pant's performance was phenomenal, highlighting that both he and the Indian team would learn from the match, which shows Pant’s evolving role and impact in Test cricket.
