Cricket News: Sourav Ganguly backs struggling Rishabh Pant

BCCI president Sourav Ganguly firmly backed the struggling Rishabh Pant, calling the wicketkeeper-batsman a "superb player" who will mature slowly and do just fine. The 21-year-old is enduring a woeful run of form in the ongoing T20 International series against Bangladesh and has struggled to make an impact both with the bat and behind the stumps. But Ganguly supported him. He said and I quote- "He's a superb player. Give Rishabh Pant time, he will be fine. He will mature slowly, you have to give him time." The swashbuckling Delhi-player had a forgettable night at his home ground in Delhi, scoring 27 off 26 balls and made errors in calling for DRS as India suffered their first-ever loss against Bangladesh in a T20I.
