Indian star wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant did not take a lot of time to become India’s most constant player, and also contributed in crucial victories in his international cricketing career.
During a recent event at Star Sports, Rishabh was asked a question about a lot of cricketers naming him as the Indian who is most ‘Australian’. Rishabh responded very humbly, stating that he can not praise himself.
He said that there are specific performances in cricket that have their name engraved in our memory, and his game at Gabba was without a doubt one of those.
Rishabh may not do his own 𝘵𝘢𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘧, but the Aussies certainly did! 😍

“I don’t have an answer for this. Apni tareef thodi naa kar sakte hain (I can’t praise myself). You have to praise me. I try to do my best. Sometimes, there are performances which are remembered for the lifetime. So, these are some of those performances and one of them is Gabba,” Pant said at the event.
“When it happened, I also didn’t knew. Rohit (Sharma) bhai was there and he told me, ‘Tujhe nahi pata tune kya kara hai (You don’t know what you have done)’. I replied back by saying that we have just won this match,” Rishabh Pant explained.
“Then, he told me that you will get to know about it in some years. So, wherever I go now and I hear about it, then I get to know what actually has happened,” he added.
