Legendary Australia captain Ricky Ponting heaped praise on India wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant after the southpaw smashed a masterful ton on the second day of the fourth Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), on Friday. Pant’s second Test ton also helped him become the first Indian wicket-keeper to score a century in Australia. “He (Rishabh Pant) is a real talent and an incredibly good ball striker. He has already scored his second Test ton and a couple of 90s to go with it. Pant is only 21 and is already into his ninth Test,” Ponting told cricket.com.au.
