IND vs SA: Rishabh Pant looks fantastic, may be fitter - Sai Sudharsan

Wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant is looking "fitter" and is raring to go in the two-match four-day series against South Africa A here, India A vice-captain Sai Sudharsan said here on Wednesday. Pant, who will lead India A, is returning after a three-month absence because of a foot injury which he sustained in July in England, and now the 28-year-old is aiming to get back to the national fold during the two-match Test series against the Proteas. Rishabh looks fantastic, actually, may be fitter I would say. He had some time to build, put that training in his legs because sometimes when you get injured you have that specific time to work on whatever you want. I feel he looks a bit more fit and strong and as courageous as always he is, said Sudharsan after India A's training session. The Tamil Nadu batter said Pant was in his characteristic bubbly self during the training session at the BCCI CoE and has exhorted the team to use the matches to get the red-ball rhythm. The message from P

T20I series victory in South Africa special: Team India's VVS Laxman

India head coach for South Africa tour VVS Laxman has hailed the T20 International series triumph as "a special effort" after his team secured a massive 135-run win in the last match here. India won the four-match T20I series 3-1, with the likes of batters Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson, and bowler Varun Chakravarty making big impact. "Really proud of our guys for the spirit with which they played this entire series. 3-1 win is a special effort, brilliantly led by @surya_14kumar, @IamSanjuSamson and Tilak were unstoppable with the bat and V arun Chakravarty was outstanding with the ball," Laxman posted on his "X" account. "... the entire team the way they played and enjoyed each others success, couldn't be prouder of the boys. Congratulations on a memorable win," the batting great said in a post on X. Captain Suryakumar also described the series win as a "special" one. "Well done boys, congratulations to all. Everybody knows how difficult is to win series overseas. The last time whe

SA vs IND: Tilak walked the talk, says SKY, unveiling future India star

India skipper Suryakumar Yadav has hailed Tilak Varma for "walking the talk," as the youngster unlocked his potential as India's new No. 3 batter with sensational back-to-back centuries that powered their 3-1 T20 International series triumph in South Africa. Various batters have been tried out in recent times for the crucial position once owned by Virat Kohli, with the team think-tank even experimenting with Rishabh Pant during the T20 World Cup, albeit with little success. Since then, players like Ruturaj Gaikwad, Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson have all had stints at No. 3 before skipper Suryakumar Yadav took over the role. However, after being entrusted with the crucial No. 3 spot in the last two T20Is of the series, the 22-year-old Varma has firmly grabbed the position with both hands. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav, who sacrificed his spot for the Mumbai Indians all-rounder, couldn't agree more. "It was actually running in my mind that there has been a time when one man has batte

When Suryakumar Yadav knocked on Tilak Varma's hotel room door to inform that he will bat at number three in the third T20 International, the talented left-hander was filled with gratitude and promised his skipper that he wouldn't let him down. Once he reached his 51-ball-century, second fifty coming in just 19 balls, Varma pointed towards the dug-out and blew a flying kiss to acknowledge his captain, who sacrificed his own batting position for the youngster. "It was for 'SKY', our skipper because he gave me a chance to bat at number three," Varma told reporters after India's 11-run win in the third T20I against South Africa. "I love batting at number three, but in last two matches, I played at number four. Last night he came to my room and said that 'You will bat No. 3' and he said it's a good opportunity. Go and express yourself. I told him, 'You have given me an opportunity, I will show you on the ground'," said the second youngest Indian centurion in T20 Internationals. His ...
