New Delhi. Rishabh Pant is one of the liveliest stars of Indian cricket. This batsman definitely wins hearts and games with his game. He is also popular for his humor and knows how to change the game by giving tips to his colleagues. But in the Test match between India and New Zealand, Pant’s advice proved costly for Washington Sundar. Rishabh Pant also soon realized his mistake and did not hesitate to apologize. During this time, the video he said to Washington Sundar went viral.
The second match of the Test series between India and New Zealand will be played in Pune. New Zealand had a good start to the game. At one time he had scored 197 runs for 3 wickets. After that came the onslaught of Washington Sundar (not Dana) and the entire New Zealand team was reduced to 259 runs.
During that ‘beautiful storm’, in the 78th over, Rishabh Pant gave Washington Sundar some advice. He said: Washi can bring it up…but in searching for Pant’s wisdom he forgot that the crease batsman was only born in Mumbai. Ajaz Patel took up Pant’s advice and as soon as Washington Sundar rolled a ball down the length, he hit a four-over long-on with ease.
As soon as Washington Sundar looked at Pant for a four, the Indian wicketkeeper immediately went on the back foot. Pant said, “Hey, how do I know he knows Hindi?” What was special was that when Pant advised Washington Sundar to bowl forward, he wasn’t just speaking Hindi. He immediately translated the advice given in Hindi into English.
