Rishabh Pant will look to score big on his 25th birthday
Rishabh Pant will be keen to make his 25th birthday a memorable one by playing a match-winning knock for the Indian team. The Men in Blue will take on South Africa in the third and final T20I of their series on Tuesday night at Indore's Holkar Cricket Stadium.
The wicket-keeper batter has not received a single chance to bat in his last three T20I matches. India's top order has done much of the heavy lifting in those games, with Pant's duties being limited to his work behind the stumps.
However, according to reports, KL Rahul and Virat Kohli have been rested for the Indore T20I. This could see Pant receive an opportunity to bat higher up the order on Tuesday.
The third T20I against South Africa is the last international game for India's 2022 T20 World Cup squad members. They will soon board a flight to Australia and start their training sessions for the mega event.
It will be interesting to see how Pant performs in Indore. The match will start at 7:00 PM IST.
