First Indian wicket keeper to score a Test century in England.
Pant became the first Indian wicketkeeper to make a century on English soil, beating Dhoni's previous high of 92.
Pant, who struck 14 boundaries and three sixes, completed a well-deserved century with a six off Rashid.
Most Catches by a Wicket keeper in a Test Match
Rishabh Pant tied the global record for most catches by a wicket keeper in a Test match when he took 11 in the first test against Australia in 2018, beating the Indian record.
The 24-year-old is currently tied with Englishman Jack Russell (in a 1995 match against South Africa in Johannesburg) and South African AB de Villiers (vs Pakistan at Johannesburg in 2013).
128* in 63 balls for Delhi Daredevils against the Sunrisers Hyderabad
In IPL 2019, when Delhi Daredevils faced the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Feroz Shah Kotla, Rishabh Pant created the record for the highest individual score by an Indian in IPL with a 128-run-knock.
KL Rahul, who hit 132 runs for Kings XI Punjab, later broke the record.
Rishabh Pant- The Captain
Rishabh Pant was appointed as the captain of the Delhi Capitals for the 2021 IPL season.
Shreyas Iyer, the regular captain of the Delhi Capitals, was ruled out for the season after dislocating his left shoulder during the ODI series against England.
He made his debut as the Delhi Capitals captain on April 10, 2021. Pant was retained as captain despite Iyer's return in the ongoing second leg of IPL 2021.
