Rishabh Pant greatest comeback in history: Rishabh Pant is a name who has changed his fate himself. After the way his car crashed in December 2022, if it was someone else, he would not have even thought of playing cricket again. But Pant has created a sensation in the cricket world by scoring a century in his very first Test match after his comeback. He scored 109 runs in the second innings against Bangladesh. Now one of the greatest wicketkeeper-batsmen in the world, Adam Gilchrist has praised this stormy batsman of India.
Great wicketkeeper Adam Gilchrist praised Rishabh Pant’s spirit on the Club Periyar podcast and said, “One of the most memorable returns in history. I would like to say that after suffering such mental and physical damage, no one could have had a more spectacular return. He has made a comeback 620 days after the car accident. He has returned to the Indian team that has won 17 consecutive Test series at home.”
The podcast also discussed the fact that India has not lost the last 17 Test series at home. India’s last defeat in a Test series was against England in 2012. At that time, Alastair Cook was the captain of England. In that four-match series, England defeated India 2-1.

He hit 13 fours and 4 towering sixes while playing an innings of 109 runs in 128 balls. This was his sixth century in Test matches and with this he equaled MS Dhoni in terms of scoring centuries in the history of Test cricket.
