This was the first time Rishabh Pant played ODIs against the Proteas in their den. His fearless batting has earned him a spot in India’s playing XI. But his form remained on and off throughout the tour. After scoring a ton in the final Test, he was expected to dominate in the ODIs.

In the first ODI, Pant got out for 16 runs and he came back with a brilliant 85 off just 71 deliveries in the second match. The way he dominated the No.1 T20I bowler Tabraiz Shamsi in the second match was a treat to the eyes.

With this score, he became the Indian wicket-keeper to score the highest runs in South Africa. He also had a good time behind the stumps with a few dismissals. Unfortunately in the third match, he got out for a duck, but his record-breaking innings in the second match would give him the confidence to move ahead this year.
