Indian cricket team batting coach Sitanshu Kotak provided a huge update on Rishabh Pant after the wicket-keeper batter left the field retired hurt on Day 1 of the second Test match against Sri Lanka in Colombo.

Indian cricket team wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant was forced to walked off the field retired hurt during Day 1 of the second Test match against Sri Lanka in Colombo on Sunday.

In May this year, KL Rahul replaced Rishabh Pant as India's Test vice-captain.

Rishabh Pant has been advised to reject any offer of captaincy from Delhi Capitals (DC), after returning to the franchise for IPL 2027.

Over the years, Rishabh Pant has kept fans and fellow cricketers amused with his witty comments from behind the stumps.

Rishabh Pant's hilarious request to Devdutt Padikkal on Day 4 of the first Test between India and Sri Lanka went viral on social media, leaving fans thoroughly entertained.

Harsha Bhogle was extremely critical of India's batting approach in the second innings on Day 4 of the first Test match against Sri Lanka on Tuesday.

Backed by Rishabh Pant's quintessential 66, India's bowlers displayed ruthless efficiency to reduce Sri Lanka to 84 for four at stumps on the fourth day as the visitors positioned themselves for a massive victory in the first Test.

Rishabh Pant has reached a peak unlike any Indian batter before him. With a six off Lahiru Kumara in the second session on Day 4 of the first India vs Sri Lanka Test in Galle, the wicketkeeper-batter became the first Indian to hit 100 sixes in Test cricket
