India wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant marked his Test comeback with an emotional hundred on a hot afternoon in Chennai, rekindling his love affair with the format.

Rishabh Pant, who recently returned to international cricket after a serious injury, also reflected on his emotional journey back to the field.

Rishabh Pant held Bangladesh set their field during his second-innings century in first India vs Bangladesh Test in Chennai, the video of which went viral on social media.

Rishabh Pant explained his emotional celebration after a superb hundred on his Test comeback in India's thumping victory over Bangladesh in the first Test.

Rishabh Pant injected humor into India's opening Test against Bangladesh by advising field placements on the stump mic. After recovering from a serious accident, he scored an impressive 109 runs and formed a strong partnership with Shubman Gill.

Away and out with multiple injuries, Pant, in early 2023, was even deemed unfit to play cricket again, let alone do wonders on his Test return.

This was Pant’s first Test match since December 2022, when he had sustained multiple injuries during a horrific car accident. Pant scored a century in India’s second innings, scoring 109 off 128 balls.
