  • Pant, a key middle-order batsman with 342 runs scored so far and two hundreds in the series, was treated cautiously as the BCCI medical team awaited updates on his injury.
  • Pant's injury raised concern for India in the tightly contested series, tied 1-1, suggesting potential impacts on team strategy and on-field roles as the Test progressed.
