overrated rishabh pant labelled a burden on test team after guwahati disaster as fans explode

Team India stand-in skipper Rishabh Pant recorded his second consecutive low score in the second Test against South Africa at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. Fans were absolutely furious over the wicketkeeper-batter's dismissal when they needed to save the Test on Day 5 Wednesday, November 26.

South Africa set an improbable 549 for the home team in the match. The visitors bagged two early wickets in the final session of the fourth day, leaving India struggling at 27/2 in 15.5 overs. However, fans expected a better performance from the Indian batters to save a match on a surface that hasn't deteriorated a lot.

Rishabh Pant Dismissed for Just 13 in the Second Innings

The home team had luck in the morning session, as Sai Sudharsan was dismissed off a no-ball and Kuldeep Yadav's catch was dropped. Simon Harmer provided the breakthrough for his team by removing Kuldeep, who scored 5 off 38 balls. Dhruv Jurel's stay at the crease ended quickly as he scored just 2 runs.
