The young and talented wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant is back with the Indian cricket team at Durham after getting recovered from COVID-19. Pant tested positive for Coronavirus on July 8 and since then, he was in isolation at a relative’s house. However, now he is back with the squad and he is all set to play for India in the upcoming 5-match Test series.
The 5-match India vs England five-match Test series is due to start from August 4. Preparations of both the teams are in the final stages for the much-awaited five matches Test series. This series is going to be one of India’s biggest tests in their new World Test Championship (WTC) campaign.
Meanwhile, ahead of the series, India’s star opener Rohit Sharma took to his Instagram and shared a picture of Indian wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant and took a hilarious dig at him. In his post, Rohit compared Pant’s look to that of Indian rapper Badshah.
In the picture, Pant can be seen sporting chunky yellow glasses, a white T-shirt, and a chain around his neck. Taking a dig at Rishabh Pant, Rohit wrote:
“We have our own badshah here”

The post went viral in no time and was flooded with hilarious reactions from the fans to it. However, there was one comment which was noticed the most and it was made by the Indian cricketer Kedar Jadhav. As the T-shirt worn by Rishabh Pant also had a flower printed on it, Kedar Jadhav trolled Pant by comparing him to former PM Jawaharlal Nehru. He wrote:
“Our very own Chacha Neharu” with a rose emoji.
