Rishabh Pant Smash Twin Ton
The pants, who are the second most senior batsman in the new Indian Test team, pushed their team forward by playing extraordinary knocks in both innings against Ben Stokes -led side.
Test Vice-Captain played in his classic style and played some unconventional shots while falling to the ground, but hit the first innings in a stunning century. He scored 134 runs from 178 balls and helped visitors to register a big score of 471 on the board.
Rishabh Pant continued his batting talent in the second innings, and in a little difficult situations, he showed his best performance and slammed for another century.
He formed a sensational partnership with KL Rahul and completed hundreds of back-to-back in the 70th over, which Shoaib Bashir bowled.
On the fourth ball of the over, Shoaib Bashir bowled a length of a length outside the pants outside the off-stump, which reached out and cut it towards a deep point for the same.
Before hugging KL Rahul, he was happy after completing his centenary and removed his helmet. Sunil Gavaskar was seen pointing to Pant to perform the Somarasault festival, but the wicketkeeper-batsman denied the request and pointed out that he would do so next time.
With his twin tons in Leeds, pants became the first Indian wicketkeeper to make a hundred hits in each innings in a Test match and was the second wicketkeeper to hit hundreds of twins in only one Test match.

Here is how fans and cricket fraternities had hit two tonnes in the Leeds Test by Rishabh Pant:
The best part of the pants is that it is unpredictable not only in batting but also in his ceremonies. When everyone hoped that he would do a Somaras, and Mr. Gavaskar refused to do so politely, despite repeatedly asking him.
