He needs to find the right balance wherein he is able to play freely while batting till the end. Pant must not carry any baggage and play like the Pant of old. A run-a-ball 40 doesn’t suit Pant and doesn’t take the team anywhere,” Sehwag stated whereas talking on Cricbuzz forward of Delhi’s conflict towards the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
