India was asked to bat first after Jos Buttler won the toss.
Rishabh Pant has made quite a name for himself when it comes to audacious shots and the ability to get under the skin on the bowlers.
He already has two unbelievable reverse scoop shots to his name against England in the ongoing series. One came in the fourth Test against England when he scooped James Anderson to the third man area for a boundary.
Then in the T20I series, Rishabh Pant repeated the same shot, but this time to a 92 kph delivery from Jofra Archer, which went all the way for a six, leaving the crowd and the bowler gobsmacked.

He has had a good outing in the ODI series as well, scoring his career-best 77 in the second ODI, and in the ongoing third ODI, Rishabh Pant added one crazier-looking shot, this time to a spinner. On the first ball of the 23rd over bowled by Adil Rashid, Rishabh Pant received a ball on his legs, and despite being cramped, Pant managed to hit it for a boundary.
He used his steel-like wrists to play an MS Dhoni helicopter-like shot over the mid-wicket area for a one-bounce four.
Here is the video of Pant’s crazy helicopter-like shot:
India was put in to bat by Jos Buttler as Kohli lost his 3rd straight toss in the series. Rohit Sharma (37) and Shikhar Dhawan (67) added 103 runs for the first wicket, but Adil Rashid and Moeen Ali reduced India to 157/4 by the 25th over.
