Ex-England Cricketer David Lloyd Accuses Pant Of 'milking' His Injury
David Lloyd: Former England cricketer David Lloyd revealed that the common consensus of the ‘legends lounge’ at Old Trafford was that India wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant was ‘milking his injury’ when he walked out to bat on Day 2 of the fourth Test.
Pant was batting at 37 on Day 1 when he was injured while attempting to reverse sweep a Chris Woakes yorker, which ended up hitting him on the toe and resulted in a reported fracture on his right foot. Despite the injury, he returned to bat after Shardul Thakur’s dismissal and received thunderous applause in Manchester, but Lloyd believes Pant should have been timed out.
"I've never had a metatarsal, which I think is somewhere in the foot, seeing Rishabh Pant. I have had a smashed hand against Andy Roberts and a broken cheekbone. I couldn't bat on after either, although I think I did continue when I had a broken finger. Pant looked in pain; it was pretty heroic of him to come out, though.
