Team India keeper-batter Rishabh Pant played an outrageous shot off Australia skipper Pat Cummins’ bowling during the ongoing first Test match in Perth. Rishabh Pant’s shot came when the Indian national cricket team was struggling with six early wickets in the first innings of the series opener.
Team India stand-in skipper Jasprit Bumrah opted to bat first after winning the toss at Optus Stadium on Friday, November 22. However, this decision proved costly for the visiting team in the ongoing match. They lost six batters for just 73 runs on the board in the first innings under challenging conditions.

On the last ball of the 42nd over, Rishabh Pant played a remarkable shot off Pat Cummins. He executed a sweep for six to a full ball angled in around off. He collapsed his back knee but launched the delivery for six over the fine leg boundary. It was one of the many extraordinary shots in Pant’s armory.
