'Any amount of praise is not enough for him, especially for batting with a broken foot. 'I think the generations to come will talk about it, and the generations coming forward should talk about it.' Pant was injured while attempting a reverse sweep off Chris Woakes, and the ball deflected onto his right ankle and foot.
