IND Vs ENG: Rishabh Pant Enters The Elite List Of Don Bradman, Kumar Sangakkara After Slamming Half Century

Rishabh Pant has scored a huge milestone through a half-century in the second innings of the Leeds Test. It is his fifth consecutive 50-plus score in England, making him part of a select bunch of visiting batsmen who have achieved this feat. His last five innings in England are: 50, 146, 57, 134, and 50 not out. This is how consistent he has remained on English pitches, which are generally tricky for batsmen. His good show has kept India competitive in foreign Tests.
