News India Live, Digital Desk: India vs Australia: Former India cricketer and now well-known commentator Sanjay Manjrekar has recalled the combative innings of Rishabh Pant, which gave India a historic victory in Sydney. He appreciated the indomitable courage on Pant’s ground, in which he performed brilliant batting despite having a fracture foot. Manjrekar believes that this extraordinary performance will remain immortal in the hearts of Indian cricket fans for the next 50 years. The memorable innings of the Want came in the Sydney Test against Australia. Manjrekar also recalled Hanuma Vihari’s innings during this period and praised his ‘fighting batting’. He clarified that he was talking about changing the defeat with the mentality of winning here, and it was the same innings that proved to be very important in reaching the draw in Sydney. During this time, Rishabh Pant batted with an injured leg for almost a session. Despite the injury, he did not leave the ground, which gave a glimpse of his inner commitment and the unknown attitude. Manjrekar further referred to the match played in Brisbane when the Indian team had won the record target successfully in the fourth innings. Rishabh Pant helped the Indian team create history with his brilliant and invading innings. Manjrekar believes that there are only a few teams that can play cricket at the ‘level of greatness’ despite injuries like India, especially in Australia and in difficult conditions. The Indian team defeated Australia in the Test series for the second consecutive time on their own land, showing the unwavering passion and determination of the young Indian team. This victory was achieved without many veterans, especially in the absence of captain Virat Kohli. The injuries on that tour were also going on with the players, but they did not allow it to become a hindrance. Overall, Manjrekar was greatly impressed by this aspect of Rishabh Pant’s game, where personal pain or injury could not come between him and victory. He described it as one of the most inspirational moments of Indian cricket.
