Wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant joined the opposition team's huddle before the start of play on Day 4 of the Duleep Trophy 2024 match on Sunday, September 8, at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Pant is representing India B in the tournament, marking his return to red-ball cricket after more than 20 months.

Ahead of play on the final day of the contest, India A captain Shubman Gill and his teammates huddled to discuss their game plans and strategies.

"Gauti bhai is more aggressive" - Rishabh Pant on coaching styles of Gautam Gambhir and Rahul Dravid

Rishabh Pant recently analyzed and gave his opinions about the coaching styles of Indian current and former head coaches Gautam Gambhir and Rahul Dravid.

Speaking to Jio Cinema ahead of the Duleep Trophy match against India A, Pant feels that Gambhir is more aggressive when compared to Rahul Dravid. As quoted by India Today, he said:

"Gauti bhai is more aggressive, he is very one-sided about the fact that we have to win. But you need to find the right balance, That’s the best part about international cricket, you keep on improving and finding the balance."

On Rahul Dravid, he added:

"I feel Rahul bhai was very balanced as a human being and as a coach. For us, there were good moments and bad moments as a cricket team. In the journey of cricket, there are positives and negatives. And it depends on the individuals who are in charge of whether to focus on positives or negatives."
