The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Tuesday (January 22) gave everyone some laughs as they announced Rishabh Pant as ICC Men’s Emerging Cricketer of the Year with a creative sketch on Twitter.
While Virat Kohli swept the top three awards -named ICC ODI Cricketer of the Year, Test Cricketer of the Year and Cricketer of the Year, Pant was also honored with the Emerging Cricketer of the Year award for the sensational start to his Test career.
On the occasion, ICC took to Twitter to congratulate the youngster but the way sport’s governing body congratulated Pant has left social media crazy and surprised everyone with their post.
However, it was quite hilarious, in the sketch, the Tim Paine and Bonnie Paine were seen sitting with their kids along with Pant in the middle babysitting them, and fans totally loved it. Even Australian Test skipper’s wife Bonnie has loved it as well.
Noteworthy, Paine and Pant were constantly involved in an exchange of words on the field during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and even Australia skipper had offered a babysitter role to him in Melbourne.
However, Pant made Paine's wishes come true when he met his wife and kids at the New Year’s Day and even, she had shared a photo on Instagram with a caption, "Best babysitter" - which crazily gone viral on the social media.
Now, the ICC has made it even more famous by recreating the moment in a sketch by showing Pant as the champion babysitter and champion cricketer while congratulating him on winning the award on its official social media handle, and Bonnie shared this picture on her Instagram story with a cheeky comment.
