Former India player Ajay Jadeja shared Rishabh Pant might be disappointed after narrowly missing yet another hundred in the first Test between India and New Zealand in Bengaluru. He also added that the special player now has a unique record of scoring more 90s than hundreds as well.

Reviewing the game on Colors Cineplex, Jadeja said, “You can only appreciate Rishabh’s knock. His best comes out whenever it is required, when everyone is in trouble, or when the circumstances are difficult. He used to say that he didn’t bother about the nineties but when he came last time on our show, he said he has started paying attention to hundreds,” he responded.

“Don’t know what goes on in his mind, when Rohit Sharma, who stays with him throughout the day, couldn’t understand. However, it must be pinching. He now has fewer centuries and has gotten out in the nineties more times. It’s interesting. It’s a rare record. Since he is a rare guy, he will make rare records,” the former India captain again added.

In the same discussion, Ajay Jadeja also stated that Rishabh Pant’s dismissal on 99 in the Bengaluru Test cannot be attributed to nervousness.

“If you see this dismissal, it doesn’t seem like it was due to mistakes that can happen due to nervousness. Yes, there was a mistake in execution, the balance wasn’t there because when you get out, something lacking is found. However, I doubt he becomes nervous, and I can particularly say that about this innings. It didn’t seem like he was under the pressure of a century, from whichever angle you might see,” he concluded.
