More has worked with 21-year-old Pant, who has represented India in all the three formats - Test, ODI and T20I - in the past too. He told the young Delhi boy how could he become better behind the stumps with the gloves, taking leaves out of MS Dhoni's playbook.

“Rishabh had a more sideways movement and I suggested a bit more open-chested stance. It helps in balance and keeping a still head, something that is key to Mahendra Singh Dhoni's success,” More said.
