NEW DELHI: India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant explained that he adopted a restrained approach on the opening day of the fifth Test against Australia due to the challenging nature of the SCG pitch, which prevented him from playing his usual aggressive game.
Pant, who faced criticism for his reckless batting in the previous Test at Melbourne, scored a patient 40 off 98 balls in India’s total of 185 all out on Friday.
