Apart from his aggressive batting model, India’s wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant can be identified for his chirpings behind the stumps. During the opening day of the primary Test match between India and Australia, Rishabh Pant continued to chirp away behind the wicket to inspire his bowlers, at the same time as England batsmen Joe Root and Dom Sibley continued to frustrate the Indian group.
Joe Root slammed a century, remaining unbeaten on 128 on the finish of the day, whereas Sibley scored 87 because the duo placed on 200 runs for the third-wicket partnership. England ended the day on 263/3 in 89.3 overs.
Pant’s ‘commentary’ behind the stumps started early from Day 1. During the twelfth over, Ravichandran Ashwin got here from across the wicket to opener Rory Burns, and Pant cheekily says, “Idhar se phasega toh maza aayega!” (It’d be enjoyable if he will get trapped from this angle!)
