Aggressive style proved costly at times

This attitude of Pant has given him many memorable innings, but on some occasions his shot selection has also caused losses to the team. For this reason, questions have been raised about his style of playing. However, former Indian cricketer Deep Dasgupta believes that Pant does not need to change his style.

Dasgupta said – play in your own style

Deep Dasgupta said on his YouTube channel that Pant should bat exactly the way he usually does. According to him, Pant being overly defensive is not a better option for the team. He said that it is more acceptable if Pant gets out while trying to hit a big shot, rather than losing his wicket while defending forcefully.

Pant is an important link for India

The role of Pant, who bats at number five, is very important for India. He has to act as a strong link between the top order and the lower order. Against Sri Lanka, he may get a good opportunity to show his aggressive ability against spin bowling, because the number of left-arm spin bowlers in the Sri Lankan team is high.
