Before being retired hurt, Pant, who was taken out of the ground on a buggy ambulance, scripted a world record.

Pant became the first-ever wicketkeeper to score 1000-plus Test runs in an away country.

Pant (37 retired hurt off 48) had just started flexing his muscles before missing a reverse hit off a full ball from Chris Woakes.

The impact of the ball was on Pant's right foot, leaving him in a lot of pain and eventually he had to be taken off the field in a golf cart.
