The young wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant thinks comparisons with the legendary Mahendra Singh Dhoni are inspiring, but he wants to establish his own identity in cricket. The feeling is amazing according to Pant.

India made a remarkable fight-back after a record-lowest score of 36 in Adelaide and went on to win the series amid the fact that their captain Virat Kohli was not available for the rest of the tournament and that several main players succumbed to injury.

They won the second Test in Melbourne and drew the next at the SCG before pulling off a remarkable victory at the Gabba, where Australia had not lost since 1988 to clinch the series.

"You feel amazing when you are compared to someone like MS Dhoni and you compare me with him. It's amazing but I don't want to be compared with anyone, I want to make myself as a name in Indian cricket, because it's not good to compare some legend with some youngster" Pant told reporters after landing in home soil.

After playing a key role and winning against Australia's historic Test Series. His match and series-winning effort of 89 in the second innings of the fourth Test won him all-round praise. He became the top ranked wicketkeeper-batsman and has been promoted to 13th position in the ICC Test rankings after a stellar performance in the Australia series.
