[WATCH] Off stump down the ground, Jofra Archer's beauty delivery bowled out Rishabh Pant in ENG vs IND 4th Test

Jofra Archer's banger ended Rishabh Pant's fightback. The vice-captain of Team India came to bat on Day 2 with an injured foot and scored an essential half century. He was in full swing against the England bowlers.

Pant came back to the field to bat on Day 2, after retiring hurt on Day 1. Before Pant's arrival, BCCI on social media had already formed the opinion that he will not be able to keep because of the injury on his right foot. The southpaw departed after a well-made 75-ball, 54-run innings.

In the meantime, he equalized a record of former international Virendra Sehwag. Pant got his 90th test over the boundary and leveled the record made by the former India opener. He smashed Archer for a huge 6. Later, Archer took revenge by claiming the aggressive batter's scalp. The delivery, which cost Rushabh's wicket, was a good length delivery, with the seam pointed towards the left-handed.

Off stump went for a walk

Rishabh went to defend it with a straight bat but was defeated by the pace and probably by a little bit of low bounce. The off stump went for a walk, and Rishabh Pant was bowled out. He was the ninth batter of India's first innings, and by then, the score was 349, with only one wicket in hand. The visiting side concluded their first innings with 358 runs on the board, definitely a fightable total. 

The wicket of Old Trafford still has something to offer for the bowlers. Shubman Gill and his boys now have to fight back through their bowling. It is a must-win match for them. As England won the Lord's Test, they are leading the 5-match series by 2-1, and the ongoing game could prove decisive to confirm the fate of the series.
