Evolution of wicket-keepers in the 21st century ft. Deep Dasgupta |Cricket
About this episode
Rishabh Pant recently became the first Indian wicketkeeper to hit two centuries in a Test while his counterpart Jamie Smith blitzed his way to an 80-ball century in the following Test. South African wicket keeper Lhuan-dre Pretorious struck a sparkling century on Test debut. But things were quite different for wicket keepers for most part of cricket’s history. What changed three decades ago? And who were the men who ushered in this new era? Former Indian wicket-keeper Deep Dasgupta discusses the transformation of the role of wicket-keeper in this century in this episode of A Century of Stories: Cricket podcast presented by IDFC FIRST Bank.
