Ravichandran Ashwin has praised Rishabh Pant a lot. He has said that Pant can score a century in every match. Ashwin has said that Pant has not yet realized his potential.
For whom did Ashwin say this?
New Delhi. Veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin believes that if Rishabh Pant is successful in striking a balance between his offensive and defensive game, then he can score a century in every match. Praising Pant’s ability to single-handedly change the course of the match, Ashwin has said that Pant has not yet realized his potential.
Ravichandran Ashwin while talking on his YouTube channel said, “Rishabh Pant has not yet realized his potential. He has all kinds of shots – reverse sweep, slog sweep, everything – but the problem is that all these shots are very risky. If he also focuses on his defensive game and faces 200 balls, he can score big in every match.

Ashwin, who recently retired, said, “The biggest issue is to create balance. If he is successful in doing this, then he can score a century in every match. Pant played two brilliant innings in the Sydney Test. While batting in the first innings, he scored 40 runs which was not discussed. This is not right.” Pant scored 40 runs in 98 balls in the first innings of the Sydney Test against Australia and then scored 61 runs in 33 balls in the second innings.
Ashwin said, “We should note that Rishabh Pant has rarely been out while batting defensively. They have better technology. I have bowled to him a lot in the nets, he did not get out. The ball does not hit the edge of his bat nor is he LBW.”
