Rishabh Pant is a character that is a much needed addition to world cricket. The chirpy, Indian wicketkeeper-batsman who always catches the eye, also created another rib-tickling, cringe-comic moment himself on the third day of the first Test match against the Bangladesh team at Chennai.
The fielder was pulled into the match at the MA Chidambram Stadium and on the third morning and even before the play had resumed to go on, Rishabh Pant had helped out the fielder with trying to move in the fielder correctly.
“Arre idhar aayega ek…bhai, ek idhar, one fielder here, Pant was caught saying on the stump microphone. Thereafter, the commentators on air couldn’t help but laugh about Pant’s sense of humour. However, this is Pant’s first Test match following a major road traffic accident in December 2022 where he was the passenger.
That is the situation low-odds was the Pant who scored 39 in the first innings as India took to bat second on the game bout, he entered Saturday on 12 runs not out and edged Builder Gill who scored 33 runs.
376 led the charge for India when they batted first inn off Bangladesh in the 1st innings, in there second innings bout afters wicket upal dismissed the Bangladesh team for a paltry 149 runs choosing out of the follow-on.
On Saturday, the hosts started their second innings at a score of 81 for 3, establishing a lead of 308 runs.
