Rishabh Pant, hats off to you: Yuvraj, Pietersen in awe of reverse flick against Jofra Archer in 1st T20I

India vs England, 1st T20i: Rishabh Pant was dismissed for 21 on Friday but the left-hand batsman left the cricket fraternity in awe when he reverse-flicked fast bowler Jofra Archer for a six in Ahmedabad.

A week after playing an audacious reverse flick against James Anderson in the 4th Test, Rishabh Pant was at it again. The India wicketkeeper-batsman, playing in the first T20I of a 5-match series against England in Ahmedabad on Friday, played another unbelievable shot as he reverse-flicked Jofra Archer for a six when the England pacer was steaming in and bowling in excess of 140kph. This is the new generation !! Absolutely fearless ! Reverse sweep or shot I don’t know what to call it ! But @RishabhPant17 hats off to you to hit a fast bowler like that ! Game on !! #IndiavsEnglandT20 Holy smokes!Pant has just played the greatest shot that’s ever been played in cricket.Reverse sweeping/lifting Archer with a brand new white ball at 90mph for 6. India had lost opener KL Rahul and captain Virat Kohli inside the first 2 overs after England opted to bowl but that did not stop Rishabh Pant from playing what Kevin Pietersen thinks is one of the "greatest shots" in the history of T20 cricket. india vs England, 1st T20I: Live Updates
