Pant came to open the innings for India alongside Rohit in the ongoing second T20I.
The duo provided the visitors a blazing start, adding 49 runs for the opening wicket inside five overs. Richard Gleeson broke the dangerous looking partnership by removing Rohit for 31.
While both of them entertained the fans with some dazzling strokes, the highlight of their partnership was a quick single, which left everyone in splits.
During the first over of India’s innings, Pant took a risky single after clipping a delivery from David Willey to mid-wicket with soft hands. When the southpaw was scampering for a quick single, Willey came in his way but he managed to complete the run.
After taking the single, Pant told Rohit: “Saamne aa gaya tha, takkar maar du kya?”
To which, the Indian captain replied: “Maar de aur kya.”
