Really admire the attitude of KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant , this attitude of not giving up. Memorable centuries for both of them.

Opened account in Test Cricket with a 6, first century in Test Cricket with a 6. Very impressive young man- Rishabh Pant. A brilliant innings from KL Rahul as well. Shining light amidst a difficult tour.

First Indian wicket keeper to score a 100 in England and the first Indian keeper to score a 100 in the fourth innings. Delightful innings from Rishabh Pant. pic.twitter.com/q7TfdB7qDk

Of course he goes big to bring up his maiden test ?! First hundred by an Indian keeper (first skill set) on English soil too. Great to watch @RishabPant777 making his mark. #EngvInd
