Later in the post-day press conference (video shared on the X platform by Star Sports) KL Rahul was spotted talking about Rishabh Pant and his batting style.

The England vs India Test series is at a decisive point after the Day 4 of the 1st Test. With the brilliant a hundred in the game, KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant were able to make up a score of 371 to surpass the home team to reach the target.
KL Rahul’s Statement About Rishabh Pant
‘You just stand there and admire and sometimes scratch your head about the shot selections and the outrageous cricket he plays.’
‘(Pant is a) Unique, unique player. You just let them be. I have had a few partnerships with him. I remember his first Hundred would be in Oval. We batted for a long period of time, he enjoys his cricket and that is how he likes to express himself.’
I just let him be and try to keep him as calm as possible. He has a method of his own that none of us in this room understands. So let’s just let him be Rishabh Pant and make the best decisions for himself.’
Rishabh Pant’s Performance In The England Vs India
In the 1st Test against England at Headingley, Rishabh Pant explained a dazzling performance and portrayed the touch of flair and maturity in batting. He played a tough 65 in the first day, which he scored after a spell of bad form, and he added an elegant 134 in the first innings. In the second innings, Pant did even better and registered domination by hitting a century himself and stitching an invaluable 195-run stand with KL Rahul to leave England with a target of 371. His twin centuries secured his place in becoming the first Asian wicket-keeper to do so, in a Test match; an affirmation that he was a game changer and a solid groundhold when it comes to the middle order of the Indian team.
