India keeper-batter Rishabh Pant has gotten just one game in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022 thus far, against Zimbabwe and his innings was cut short by a stupendous catch by Ryan Burl in Melbourne.
Veteran Dinesh Karthik was preferred over Pant for the first four matches of the Indian team and he has not been able to contribute much to the Indian team. Experts have been clamoring for the inclusion of Pant in the upcoming matches given that he bats left-handed and provides matchups for opposition spinners.
As Rishabh Pant spent time on the bench, being the 12th man, a video has emerged on social media, where fans can be heard mocking him by using the name of actress Urvashi Rautela.

The video, however, hasn't gone down well with some of the fans, who took to Twitter to slam people for treating "cricketers like commodities".
Here is how some users reacted to fans mocking Rishabh Pant, slamming the said perpetrators:
