Rishabh Pant turned down the request of Sunil Gavaskar after hitting back-to-back centuries in the first Test of the five-match series against the England National Cricket Team at Headingley in Leeds.
Heading into the Test series against the England National Cricket Team, Pant was the most experienced batter in the Indian team after KL Rahul.
Pant mixed his unorthodox style of cricket with a little bit of a cautious approach and smashed a brilliant century in the first innings. He became the third centurion in India's first innings after Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill and finished with a score of 134 runs off 178 balls.
Pant batted in brilliant fashion and stitched up a crucial partnership with KL Rahul to drag India out of trouble, putting his team in a dominant position.
After hitting twin tons, Rishabh Pant took off his helmet and soaked in the applause before getting a big hug from his partner KL Rahul. Legendary Sunil Gavaskar, who was in the stands, was delighted to see Pant hit a ton and gestured to him to pull off his trademark somersault celebration.
