Pant scored 49 but it was no fun!

Rishabh Pant scored 49 runs in the first T20 against Sri Lanka, he was the highest scorer after Surya, but despite this, there were many shortcomings in his innings. Pant is known for playing freely but he looked quite stuck in the first 20 balls. Sri Lanka's poor fielding also contributed a lot to the fours he hit. Pant also missed two catches and he did not look completely in control. Pant had a chance to score a half-century but he missed it by one run.
