Rishabh Pant shines as India's top performer in New Zealand Test series

Rishabh Pant has emerged as India's top performer in the recent Test series against New Zealand, scoring over 240 runs. His strong performance comes after recovering from a serious car accident in December 2022, raising doubts about his return to form. Despite India's overall struggles, including a low first innings score of 46, Pant's aggressive batting style stood out. He scored an unbeaten 64 in the third Test, helping India surpass New Zealand's first innings total of 235. As India prepares for the upcoming tour of Australia, Pant's role in the middle order will be crucial. His past success in Australia, including a key innings in 2021, adds to the expectations for his performance in the upcoming series.
