Well just a month back he was rated so highly by many but look at his performance 
at domestic level tournament.. Guys take it easy , He is very young let him learn before
taking him in international games...

Take a note that he played on Flat tracks 
HE scored 99 against a minor opposition , Tripura in a flat track..

Rest 5 innings were all failures

You should mention he has the added pressure of captaincy in a team where he has people like Gambhir, Dhawan as seniors

I think this played a great part in his lean patch.

Seemingly it has become a controversy with Gambhir lashing out at Delhi coach for poor selections,may be change of captaincy as well in V.H Trophy.

This reminds me of the story of Quinton De Kock...

 

Quinton De Kock put all bowlers on fire during his under 19 and was handpicked by Du Plesis and ABDV in the senior team based on his potential... 

 

Guess what he did in his first 10 matches in all formats.. He FAILURED miserably BADLY.... But ABDV and DuPlesis kept faith in him match after match.. and look at him now

 

I see the exact same thing in Pant... Its the attitude, aggression, the impact innings..

 

When he score runs, he does it in a match winning ways... unlike lets say Puajara or Badrinath who usually play safer innings 85 of 125 balls in ODIs or 55 or 51 balls in T20... Compare that to the innnings of Pant...

 

I see Pant a better, stronger, more impactful batsman than Quinton De Kock.. I just hope Kohli does a ABDV and DuPlesis and show faith in him...

Delhis culture is a bit like Pakistanis one.... everyone has high egos and everyone wants to captain, and the administrators wants to be in limelight and take credit all the time

and Rishabh is too young to handle that... I am a big fan of Gambhir but definitely its not easy to handle his personality.

Yes I can totally see how tough it must be for a 19 year old kid to give instructions to egoist Gambhir. 

 

He would probably remind him his averages if Pant suggested some game plan to him.

Pant is not hyped just because he is having great stats but the way he bats. In last IPL he faced mustafizur with ease.Even when you look him batting you can be sure about kid's skills.Those who follow cricket passionately(most icfers here) rather than casually can easily identify special talent than ordinary ones.There would be series where he would fail and other where he wouldn't. What is the big deal here?
