Rishabh Pant rescued India from a critical situation on Day 1 of the fifth rescheduled Test match against England on Friday (July 1). The left-hander scored a brilliant ton in just 89 balls hitting 15 boundaries and a six on the way to reach the 100 mark. This was Pant's fifth century in Test cricket and he surely knows to score centuries at the best time (when his team needs it the most). Head coach Rahul Dravid's reaction to his ton was caught on camera and he was pumped to see the wicket-keeper batter putting India back into the game at Edgbaston, Birmingham.

Rishabh Pant is playing at a strike rate which is more than Babar Azam's T20 strike rate. @Rizzvi73 #ENGvsIND — third_man (@mulexander) July 1, 2022

Currently, India have crossed the 300-run mark with Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja batting strongly in the middle. England would be disappointed after the kind of start they got with all the upper order of India's batting falling in quick succession. However, Jadeja and Pant had different plans as they have crossed the 200-run mark in terms of partnership and are still looking dangerous.
