Rishabh Pant Gets Dismissed Uniquely At Edgbaston Test

Rishabh Pant's knock came to an end in the second delivery of the 47th over, that too in a unique manner. Pant went for a big against English spinner Shoaib Bashir, but once again his bat flew towards the leg-side.

However, the ball landed in long-off where Ben Duckett was standing. There was less power on the shot for which the ball dipped on the long-off. Meanwhile, Brydon Carse picked up Pant's bat and handed it over to the Indian vice-captain.
