India captained in the ongoing T20 series in South Africa Rishabh Pant Currently struggling for runs. With a series of low scores in the five-match series, Pant has been criticized by former cricketers and experts. Sunil Gavaskar feels Pant is not learning He has trouble with his mistakes and playing the ball outside the off-stump line as he loses his balance. Former Pakistan leg-spinner has joined the criticism of Danish Kaneria, who has now pointed out weaknesses in his wicketkeeping skills. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Kaneria criticized Pant’s fitness and said that he is overweight and his heavy body does not allow him to sit well which ultimately affects his keeping.
“I want to talk about Pant’s wicketkeeping. I have noticed one thing – when a fast bowler is bowling he doesn’t sit down and sits on his toes. It looks like he is overweight. And being heavy, he doesn’t get that much time to come early. This creates concern over his fitness. Is he 100 percent fit? But when it comes to his captain, bowlers and batsmen including Hardik and Karthik He has been well supported. Pant also has a chance to become the first captain To win the T20I series against South Africa,” Kaneria said.
