A wax statue of ace India cricketer Virat Kohli was installed at the Jaipur Wax Museum on the occasion of World Heritage Day on Thursday.
Former Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly feels wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant should learn how to keep things simple from his captain Virat Kohli.
In the first T20I match India had almost taken the game away from Australia but a rash shot from Pant saw him get dismissed and the home team bouncing back in the game.
Writing in his column for Times of India, Ganguly said that an exceptional talent like Pant should learn fast on how not to lose his composure.

“The Australians should count themselves extremely lucky to have won at Brisbane. India was taking the game away when a poor shot by Rishabh Pant tilted things the hosts’ way. Pant is an exceptional talent and is the future of Indian cricket. His run scoring ability, that too all around the wicket, is remarkable. But one thing he quickly needs to learn from his captain Virat Kohli, who is such a fine example of this concept, is how to keep the game simple. I am sure with time, Pant will learn,” he wrote.
Ganguly also heaped praises on Indian bowlers for their performance in the second game in Melbourne.
“India must be feeling very disappointed to have missed out on a chance to square the series after rain washed out the second T20 against Australia at Melbourne on Friday. It was a good toss to win and the Indian seamers utilised the conditions very well, and took advantage of the weaknesses of Australian batting. The Indian fast bowlers excelled in Melbourne MCG and it wasn’t surprising that Bhuvi was the pick of all the bowlers in such conditions,” Ganguly said.
