WATCH: Rishabh Pant drops MASSIVE hint of role in Manchester Test, he will… New Delhi: Questions have been raised about Rishabh Pant's wicketkeeping ahead of the fourth Test. He injured his finger while taking Jasprit Bumrah's ball during the Lord's Test. Pant kept wicket for only 35 overs in the first innings and batted in both innings, while wicketkeeping was handled by Dhruv Jurel. Is the return to practice a sign of fitness? Pant, who was recently made the vice-captain of the Test team, was seen practising wicketkeeping on Monday. In a video shared by PTI, he was seen participating in catching drills, which has raised hopes among Indian fans. How important is Pant's presence for India? India is trailing 1-2 in this five-match Test series, and Pant has been a very important player for the team. He scored two centuries in Leeds and scored 25 and 65 in Birmingham. In the third Test, he scored 74 and 9, although India lost by 22 runs. Will Dhruv Jurel have to wait again? If Pant becomes fully fit, then Dhruv Jurel may have to sit on the bench once again. However, the situation is not clear yet considering Pant's injury. Is Nitish Reddy out of the series? India will not get the services of all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy for the fourth Test. A serious injury has been found in his ligament in the scan. According to sources, his chances of returning in the last two Tests to be held in Manchester and the Oval are very low.

In the third Test, India had brought themselves to a winning position, but the top order completely flopped while chasing the target of 193 runs in the second innings. Yashasvi Jaiswal (0), Karun Nair (14) and captain Shubman Gill (6) were dismissed early. Ravindra Jadeja tried to make a comeback by scoring an unbeaten 61, but the middle order did not support him and he had to partner with the tailenders.
