Rishabh Pant will be desperate to live up to the faith reposed in him by the team management as India look to beat West Indies with another dominant show in the second Test of the series, which is part of the World Test Championship.

Having won the first Test by 318 runs, India are runaway favourites going into the second and final match at the Sabina Park against a team that neither showed the resolve nor the aptitude required to put up a sustained fight in Test cricket.

It is unlikely that India would tinker with their playing XI after a big win even, though Pant’s form has been a bit of a concern of late. More than the lack of runs, it is the manner of his dismissals that is causing frustration, considering that the Indian cricket establishment has invested heavily in the 21-year-old.
