Rishabh Pant in the Whites is always an exciting sight to watch. With his unorthodox style of batting, the keeper-batter in the ongoing England vs. India 5-match Test series has been in stunning form. In four innings, he smacked a couple of hundred and fifty-plus-run innings. Before the match at the Lord's, Rishabh revealed his habit, which helps him to bat under any circumstances. Due to advanced technologies, every corner of a cricket field can be explored.

Due to advanced stump mics, conversations near the stumps can be heard clearly or at least can be assumed. Pant has a habit of talking to himself during his batting. When he attended the press conference before the match at Lord's, a journalist asked him about his habit. Pant tackled the question with a smile on his face and revealed that he developed this habit during his childhood days. 

"The general idea has been to keep talking to myself as a batsman. I always talk a lot to myself, but you get to know about it because the stumps mic catches it. I have been doing this as a kid,” Pant told reporters. The southpaw was excited to take part in a test at the iconic.

Pant to play another dynamite innings?

Before the match, BCCI, from their official social media profile, shared a special video where viewers can see Rishabh Pant in a lead role. Before the video ends, he says with confidence that he at Lord's is going to be iconic. 

"God has been kind enough to me that I could be here with a different team in a different role. Everyone in the team is getting confidence with every match. We will take the confidence from the last match, and hopefully we can make the series 2-1," Pant said in the video. 

"I'm trying to make my own identity, and Lord's is an iconic ground. Rishabh Pant at Lord’s is going to be iconic."
