Ravichandran Ashwin criticizes Rishabh Pant after another missed century

Ravichandran Ashwin has publicly criticized Rishabh Pant following his dismissal for 81 runs during India's one-off Test against Afghanistan. Ashwin contends that Pant's aggressive batting style has often led to missed centuries, especially when he loses focus after reaching the 80s and 90s. He emphasized the need for Pant, now with over 50 Tests, to develop better game awareness and convert promising positions into match-winning scores. Despite India's overall control of the game, Ashwin's remarks highlight ongoing frustrations with Pant's high-risk shot selection.
