‘He was not prepared for captaincy': How Pant’s positive approach took DC on top

Cricket coach Pravin Amre has been a guiding force for many stalwarts of Indian cricket. The former cricketer has helped the likes of Ajinkya Rahane and Suresh Raina with their techniques. And now, as a Delhi Capitals assistant coach, he has been observing young wicketkeeper and skipper Rishabh Pant. Rishabh has shown a drastic change in his performance ever since he returned into the national setup in the Test series Down Under. After a series of failures, the youngster shut his critics with a brilliant show in Australia and then against England at home. Meanwhile, he was handed the captaincy of DC after Shreyas Iyer was ruled out of injury. Speaking on evolution as a cricketer, Amre heaped praise on the youngster, stating that he is in a ‘good space’ and ‘enjoying himself’.

“I have seen him from Day 1 when he came to Delhi Capitals selection trials from the India under-19 team and effortlessly hit sixes. His specialty is to hit sixes on slow tracks. That’s something special when the bounce is low. It struck me then that this boy was something different,” Amre was quoted as saying.
