The 24-year-old broke MS Dhoni’s record of a 93-ball century that came against Pakistan back in 2006.
India were in all sorts of troubles and were struggling at 64 for three in 23rd over in the morning session when Rishabh came into bat in at No.5. India then lost Virat Kohli (11) in the 25th over as the team’s downslide continued.
Rishabh then played a counter-attacking knock, taking on the England pacers. Pant especially went after England spinner Jack Leach, smacking him to all corners of the park.

A 100-plus partnership with Ravindra Jadeja steadied the Indian innings as Rishabh raised his fifth Test ton in the the 58th over with a quick couple of runs.
Pant, on Day 1 also became the youngest wicketkeeper-batsman in the history of Test cricket to reach the landmark of 2,000 runs.
