"Replay Dekh To Lo": Rishabh Pant Trolls Rohit Sharma As Skipper Commits DRS Blunder

One of the finest captains in world cricket, but Rohit Sharma hasn't been spot-on when it comes to DRS decisions. On Day 4 of the first Test against Bangladesh in Chennai, Rohit refused to review a caught-behind decision despite being insisted on going upstairs by wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant.

Rohit stood his ground, but when the replay of the incident was shown on the screen, the India captain had a face-palm moment, especially with Pant standing next to him.

The incident took place in the 62nd over of the innings when Bangladesh batter Hasan Mahmud was facing India's Ravichandran Ashwin.

The ball spun quite a bit and also produced a steep bounce hitting the batter on the glove before being caught by Pant. However, it seemed like the ball had hit the forearm before landing into the gloves of the keeper.

Indian batters Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant were involved in a terrible mix-up during running on Day 4 of the second Test vs Bangladesh in Kanpur, but the good thing for the hosts was that no one got out and it all ended up with a smile. It happened on the first legal delivery of the 19th over of India's innings. Bangladesh pacer Khaled Ahmed bowled a good length delivery outside off stump to Kohli. The India batter got a big inside edge on the ball while going for a drive. The ball hit Kohli's body and got further slowed down. Spotting an opportunity, the batter decided to take a quick single.
India wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant is often an animated figure behind the stumps, and he was at his enthusiastic best against Bangladesh in the second Test at Kanpur. In fact, Pant came up with another hilarious piece of advice for India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, as India tried to dismiss well-set Bangladesh batter Mominul Haque. With Mominul coming low and looking to sweep Ashwin on every ball, Pant suggested that Ashwin can trap Mominul leg-before-wicket (LBW) even by hitting his helmet. "Helmet se ek LBW le sakta hai bhai (You can get him out LBW with his helmet)," said Pant to Ashwin from behind the stumps.
Ravichandran Ashwin on Friday scripted history by becoming the Indian bowler to take most wickets in Asia. He achieved the feat after dismissing Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto on Day 1 of the second Test in Kanpur. Ashwin now has 420 wickets in the Asian continent, one more than former India captain Anil Kumble. He is now only second to Muttiah Muralitharan (612) in the all-time list of bowlers with most wickets in Asia.
Rishabh Pant is finally back in the Indian whites with his inclusion in the ongoing Bangladesh Test series. This is the first red-ball series at the highest level for the southpaw ever since he suffered a horrific car crash in December 2022. As Pant is back behind the stumps for India in the longest format of the game, he has already resumed his on-field chatter during wicketkeeping, which also keeps the fans entertained. The first India vs Bangladesh first Test in Chennai witnessed some really funny moments that were caught on stump mic and Pant had a major contribution in it. Of late, Pant's chatter behind the stumps on Day 1 of second Test vs Bangladesh in Kanpur is going viral.
Shubman Gill continued to fine-tune his approach against spinners ahead of India's second Test against Bangladesh in Kanpur, beginning on Friday. During India's practice session, ahead of the 2nd Test in Green Park, Gill practiced cover drives with Rishabh Pant giving it a go with the ball and trying to bowl spin deliveries. "Pakdna Jaddu (Jadeja) bhai bhar bhar ke drive maar raha hoon (I will hit a lot of drives)," Gill said in a video posted by BCCI on X.
Team India did win the first Test against Bangladesh by Chepauk comfortably, securing a 280-run triumph, but the result doesn't hide away issues that still remain. Ravichandran Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill, and Ravindra Jadeja were among the top performers in the series opener but the performance of stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma left much to desire. Neither Virat nor Rohit succeeded in registering a big score in the two innings, prompting suggestions that they shouldn't have missed the Duleep Trophy.
