Dravid sir told us U-19 WC loss was a lesson to learn from: Rishab Pant

By Ians English

Kolkata, Feb 22: After losing the U-19 World Cup to West Indies Indian wicket-keeper batsman Rishab Pant says their coach, cricketing legend Rahul Dravid told them to take the game as a lesson and learn from it.

On February 14, the famed Indian batting line-up which had delivered all through the event, folded like a pack of cards in the final. India were skittled out for 145. West Indies then overhauled the target with five wickets and three deliveries to spare.

Dravid sir told us U-19 WC loss was a lesson.


"After the match, Rahul sir told us it is a lesson. You guys have to learn from it. But I am proud of what you all have achieved," Pant told IANS in an interview over phone.

"He also told me 'You are my champion'. It does not matter to me if we win or lose, for me it is playing till the end."
