Want Pant To Become The Best Test Player That He Has Always Been, Says Agarkar
BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia: Chief selector Ajit Agarkar on Tuesday said he and his panel want wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant to ‘become the best Test player that he has always been,’ after he was replaced as Test vice-captain by KL Rahul for the one-off game against Afghanistan and lost his spot in the ODI team to Ishan Kishan.
Pant, 28, has won India a lot of Test matches with his aggressive batting, but doubts over his leadership abilities, including with Lucknow Super Giants being rooted to the bottom spot of the IPL 2026 points table, have meant that he’s been relieved as vice-captain in the longer format.
With his recent white-ball form not living up to the lofty expectations attached with him, Pant has been left out of the 50-over format as selectors brought in Kishan, who capped a stellar return to the T20I team by being a member of the T20 World Cup winning side, and has been in blistering form for Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2026.
