Given his greatness and records, it is always hard to ignore Virat Kohli - but former England captain Michael Vaughan did when he picked the player to watch out for in the upcoming BGT. Days ahead of the first BGT Test at Perth, Vaughan picked the Indian players to watch out for. Vaughan reckoned left-handed opener Yashasvi Jaiswal would be one and the other one would be Rishabh Pant .

“Rishabh is gonna have to play a blinder once again”
"Yashasvi Jaiswal would be one, but Rishabh Pant, I think he is absolutely box-office. He makes batting look more like he's just playing in the backyard. For India to be really competitive, this man on screen Rishabh is gonna have to play a blinder once again."
Rishabh's Gabba EPIC
During India's last tour of Australia, Pant was the hero for the side as he played a brilliant match-winning knock to take his side over the line in a stiff game. Pant remained unbeaten on 89* off 138 balls.
