Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill are both currently in New Zealand.
The Rishabh Pant-Urvashi Rautela saga has yet again hit the headlines, as the young Indian opener Shubman Gill opened up about the whole episode on a chat show. He also revealed how the Indian cricket team members have reacted to the event that has been one of the top attractions on social media recently.
Notably, Pant and Gill are both currently in New Zealand, where they are playing in the T20I series against the Black Caps. Well, the opener revealed that there was nothing from his teammate, but it was the actress who wanted someone to tease her to gain her attention.
During his conversation with Sonam Bajwa on the chat show "Dil Diyan Gallan," Gill was asked how the team members have reacted to the saga and whether they are also teasing Pant like the whole country, to which the cricketer responded by saying that Urvashi Rautela is getting herself teased.
The right-hander added that nobody teases Pant over the actress, and even the wicketkeeper-batter doesn’t get distracted by Urvashi’s social media drama, so it was all from her, not Pant.
Shubman Gill told Sonam Bajwa on her show: “There is nothing from Rishabh Pant's side. He doesn't get distracted by her activities. Actually, Urvashi wants someone to tease her.”

Notably, fans tried to get under Pant’s skin during the recent T20 World Cup 2022 over Urvashi Rautela, but they ended up getting a befitting response from the Indian star. They were involved in a verbal war on social media for a long time after the actress claimed "Mr. RP" waited for her.
