Watch: Rishabh Pant Convinces Rohit Sharma To Not Take DRS, Siraj Fumes On Seeing Replay

India wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant's wicket-keeping still remains a work in progress. The young keeper still isn't touted as one of the finest keepers in the country, though his batting ability compensates for the issues that remain behind the stumps. On Day 2 of the first Test against Bangladesh, Pant made a costly DRS blunder that left pacer Mohammed Siraj livid. Pant decided against taking a review on an LBW call, but replays showed that India would've benefitted from putting the DRS into use.

Siraj was bowling Bangladesh Zakir Hasan when the incident took place. As the ball crashed onto Hasan's pads, Siraj lodged a big appeal but the umpire refused to raise his finger. Skipper Rohit Sharma consulted the matter with wicket-keeper Pant but the latter suggested that the ball would miss the leg stump.

"Height nahi hain, nikal jayege leg-side (There's no height but the ball will be crashing down leg)," Pant was heard saying on the stump mic.

Rohit refused to go upstairs, but the ball-tracking later showed that the delivery would've hit the leg-stump. Hence, had Rohit gone upstairs, Siraj would've got Hasan's wicket.

Seeing Siraj being upset about the development, Pant raised his hand and apologised to the pacer.

It was clear that Bangladesh's confidence was dented after allowing India to build a substantial total
