When Pant dismantled the bowling attack of SRH

Rishabh Pant

Delhi Daredevils’ Rishabh Pant became the second youngest to score an IPL hundred and he became the youngest to cross the mark of 1000 runs in the tournament.

The 20-year old hit his maiden century off just 56 balls. He played an innings of unbeaten 128 off just 63 balls which was studded with 15 fours and 7 sixes. He scored 26 runs off Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s last over and helped his team post a competitive total of 187/5 in their 20 overs.

Moreover, he also became the first Indian to slam a century as the other two centuries have come from Shane Watson (CSK) and Chris Gayle (KXIP), who are overseas players.

Pant also over KL Rahul to claim the orange cap.

Here’s how Twitter reacted to Rishabh’s knock:
