3 Indian players who can build legacy like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli
The time has come for Rohit-Kohli to pass on the duties to the upcoming generation.
2. Rishabh Pant
Rishabh Pant, apart from just being a wicketkeeper-batter anymore, has gone out to become India’s crisis man, match-winner, and the next cricketing legend. Despite being around for only eight years in the national setup, Pant has already delivered some unforgettable performances, especially in the Test format. His unbeaten 89 at the Gabba that sealed a historic series win in Australia in 2021 remains one of Indian cricket’s most iconic moments. The southpaw's Test career has seen him play numerous such knocsk, playing audacious and stunning shots even in the trickiest of situations. With 2948 runs in 43 Tests at an average of 42.11, including six centuries and 15 fifties, Pant has already made significant contributions in his short career.
Moreover, he was an important member of India’s T20 World Cup 2024 and Champions Trophy 2025-winning squads. In white-ball cricket, the 27-year-old has already scored 2080 runs in 107 matches. Recently, in the IPL 2025 mega auction, he became the highest-paid player in the cash-rich league after being acquired by Lucknow Super Giants for INR 27 crore. Many fans and experts alike have rooted for Pant to take up India's captaincy in the years to come.
