Kolkata Knight Riders are their opponents in Visakhapatnam on Wednesday. Will sit in the dugout of the opposition Delhi Capitals. Calcutta has that division match again. Before that he was obsessed with Saurabh Gangopadhyay Rishabh Panth. The day after Dhoni’s defeat in Chennai, sitting in the seaside port city, he gave a private interview to Anandabazar from his mobile phone.

Q: Rishabh Panth is trending on Twitter. You also tweeted very passionately. What do you think, Rishabh is back?

Sourav Gangopadhyay: What Kal played, very encouraging. I have always been a fan of Rishabh’s cricket. He is my favorite cricketer. Coming back from such a big accident. This innings will give him a lot of confidence.

Q. What do you think, the old Rishabh is about to return?

Saurabh: I am not saying anything like that now. The boy has just returned from such a big accident. Just played three matches. He needs to be given some more time. I don’t want to put too much pressure on him by making any big comments right now.

Q. If you were to make the Indian T20 World Cup team today, would you have taken Rishabh?

Sourav: Listen, if Rishabh Pant is fit, he will walk into any Indian team in a blink of an eye. Not only T20, but also essential in all types of cricket. See what innings the boy has played abroad. But again, give him some time. The T20 World Cup team does not have to be made today. A match winner like Rishabh doesn’t come every day. So there is no room for much talk about his presence in the Indian team. I want to say at the same time, what is the rush? Don’t let Rishabh be a little more stubborn.

Q. You tweeted, Rishabh you played a very good innings. Will play more. The team will win. But this innings will be particularly memorable.

Saurabh: Yes, I think so. After hearing the story of how he survived, I was really emotional sitting in the Delhi dugout yesterday. The boy took so many stitches in his body and played such an innings in the third match! Played all such shots! Incredible! He was asking about the return of old Rishabh. I think this innings is going to play a big role in bringing back the old Rishabh Pant.

Q. Why does it seem like that

Sourav: Because, after going through so much adversity, this innings will give him a lot of courage. Belief that I still can. No matter how stubborn you are in mind or steadfast in your determination, if you can get on the field and do the work yourself, the effect is different.

Q. You brought in many new faces during your tenure as India captain. Harbhajan. companionship prince pretend Where to place Rishabh Panth in terms of talent?

Sourav: Ugh, great talent. Can’t hold back from anyone. A match winning player like this is an asset to any team, any captain. Think what kind of Test won in Brisbane. He has scored a Test century in England and Australia. Rishabh will win many more matches in India jersey.

Q. Why does Rishabh think he has a special talent?

Sourav: For those who play fast bowling in the manner of a ruler. Not many batsmen have seen fast bowling in such a majestic manner.

Q. Everyone saw what you tweeted. What did Rishabh say after the match yesterday?

Saurabh: I didn’t say anything special. I was just clapping. The boy played this innings after overcoming the terrible storms on the road of life! No compliment is enough. Then I said only one thing – continue. The more matches you play, the more balls will fly into the gallery.

Q. What is the most important thing to win IPL?

Sourav: Continuity. The team that can maintain a consistent rhythm, They will win.
