Limitations of shots
There is no doubt about the fact that Pant is a ferocious striker of the ball. However, when it comes to traditional shots, he isn’t quite the one who is pleasing to the eyes.
More often than not he targets the mid-on area and goes cross batted. It has paid rich dividends for him in the tournament so far.
However, it might not be the same ball game when it comes to international cricket. He needs to learn to play the conventional shots. The southpaw also needs to understand the fact that it is not always about hitting the ball out of the ground.
