Bashir to Pant, 1 run, he'll get there with a single but that's a special moment! Twin-centuries for India's entertainer-supreme!Length delivery wide outside off, Pant reaches out and cuts it away towards deep point. He scurries across and this time the celebrations are a lot more measured. Everybody rises in applause, Sunil Gavaskar gestures him to celebrate with another somersault but Pant says next time.

Watch licks now

Root to Pant, SIX, Pant in his element! Tossed up full and wide outside off, Pant reached out and carved it away over deep extra cover, gave it everything and one-hand came off but it cleared the ropes anyway!
70.2
Root to Pant, FOUR, now he's going to cut loose! Tossed up full outside off, he leans forward and smacks it straight back over the bowler's head, didn't get all of it so it goes for one-bounce four
70.1
Root to Pant, byes, FOUR, freebies! Very full and just outside off, Pant brings out the reverse-sweep and it dips under the bat, Jamie Smith rises too early and can't get his gloves down in time again, it trickles down for four byes

Bashir to Pant, out Caught by Crawley!! And the fun is over! Trap was set and laid bare, Stokes was just hoping and praying Pant falls into it and he has but not before he's made another scintillating century! Tossed up full on off-stump, Pant takes it on with a slog-sweep but can't quite get under it, doesn't time it or get the elevation and he holes out to Crawley at wide long-on. He walks off to a standing ovation. A century in each innings, take a bow Rishabh Pant!
