What is all the more impressive in Pant’s run is that India are without a number of their senior stars, which landed him the leadership opportunity.

As a first-time captain, the 24-year-old has shown character to help his team mount a comeback. He will now hope to seal it off with a win on Sunday.

India also have a record to settle against South Africa. The Proteas have emerged victorious in their previous meeting at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.

The Men in Blue, then led by Virat Kohli had the chance to seal the series, but the Proteas blew them away, racing towards a nine-wicket win.

Pant can change it all & take revenge in Bengaluru.
