Rishabh Pant's stunning six over of the fine-leg boundary to Tim Southee got cricket fans across the globe off their seats, but it ended up having a ripple effect that ended up costing India the match.

India captain Rohit Sharma said they will have to carefully manage Rishabh Pant's workload for the remainder of the series against New Zealand after the wicketkeeper-batsman suffered a knee injury in their eight-wicket defeat by the tourists.

Pant’s knee injury, sustained while fielding, has raised concerns, especially considering his recovery from major surgeries following a car accident in 2022.
