Rishabh Pant Tells Kuldeep Yadav "You'll Be Out In 3 Overs". Here's What Happened Next
A menace behind the sticks, India star Rishabh Pant just keeps on giving and giving, when it comes to on-field banter. On his return to red ball cricket after a gap of almost two years, Pant was on full banter mode during the Duleep Trophy match between India A and India B in Bengaluru. From teasing opposition batters to sneaking into their team huddle, Pant entertained fans with his antics on the field. However, best bit came during the final day of the match, with India B chasing a win against India A. The incident happened in the 44th over of India A's chase with Kuldeep Yadav batting alongside Akash Deep.
Pant was seen playing some mind games with Kuldeep, who couldn't help but laugh due to the tantrums thrown by the former.
Pant was constantly chirping behind the stumps, asking Kuldeep to take a single. He also asked his teammates to let him take a single, claiming that he has a plan in place to get Kuldeep out.
"Teri marzi hai, tu chakka maar ya single le. Bhai, lene do ise single. Iske liye bahut tagda plan banaya hai," Pant was caught as saying on the stump mic.
"Thik hai bhai, kyun itna pareshan ho raha hai?" Kuldeep, who couldn't control his laughter, told Pant.
"Out hoja jaldi," Pant responded.

He even went on to predict that Kuldeep will get out inside the next three overs.
Rishabh Pant - sab aage aao, ye single lega (everyone come close, he'll take the single).
Kuldeep Yadav - main nahi luga (I won't take the single).
Pant - Maa Kasam khale nahi lega (take mom's swear then). #rishabhpant #DuleepTrophy #cricket #bcci pic.twitter.com/zd8d6CrGWP
And two overs later, Kuldeep chipped Washington Sundar's effort straight to short
