4. Shown temperament and ability to build innings
Rishabh Pant has improved a lot lately. He has changed his temperament to play the game. In an interview, Pant himself said that now he is more concerned about building an inning rather than hitting maximum sixes. In the unofficial Test against England Lions Pant played two kinds of innings. In the first inning, Pant scored 58 runs in 111 balls and he stayed on the crease for 151 minutes when other batsmen just threw their wickets.
In the second inning, he showed an attacking mindset, he scored 61 runs in 71 balls. This shows Pant has the ability to bat according to the situation. Here we should also concentrate on the fact that he faced bowlers like James Porter, Chris Woakes and Sam Curran in that match.
