Rishabh Pant Arrives at Old Trafford on Crutches During IND vs ENG 4th Test 2025, Injured Wicketkeeper Available to Bat (See Pic)
The 27-year-old batted in India's first innings with an injured toe and his knock helped India score 358 in their first innings. This was the second time Rishabh Pant sustained an injury in the IND vs ENG 2025 Test series, with the earlier one being a finger injury suffered during wicketkeeping.
Rishabh Pant was seen arriving at Old Trafford in Manchester on Day 5 of the IND vs ENG 4th Test 2025 on Sunday, July 27. The India National Cricket Team wicketkeeper-batter suffered a blow to his right foot by a delivery from Chris Woakes on Day 1 of the IND vs ENG 4th Test 2025 and despite the injury, which reportedly is a fracture, he had shown incredible grit and determination as he walked out to bat on Day 2 amidst loud cheers at Old Trafford. He scored a gritty 54, propelling India's first innings total to 358. Earlier, India's batting coach Sitanshu Kotak confirmed that Rishabh Pant will be available to bat on Day 5, with India needing to bat for a major part, if not the whole day, in order to avoid a defeat in Manchester. The picture of Rishabh Pant on crutches, shared by IPL franchise Lucknow Super Giants, went viral on social media.
