Merko kya pata ise Hindi aati hai: Rishabh Pant comes with hilarious reply after Ajaz Patel smashes boundary off Washington Sundar

Rishabh Pant, the Indian wicket-keeper batter, took the internet by storm with his hilarious commentary behind the stumps once again during day one of the ongoing second Test between India and New Zealand in Pune. He advised Washington Sundar to bowl a little fuller and wider to New Zealand’s Ajaz Patel. However, the plan backfired as the batter went on to smash a four down the ground. 

Notably, during the first innings of New Zealand on day one, Rishabh Pant was caught on a stump mic saying “Washy thoda aage daal sakte hain, you can bowl a little fuller. Thoda bahar dal sakta hai (You can bowl a little wider).” The off-spinner followed the keeper’s advice but Ajaz Patel went on to smash a boundary by taking the front foot to the ball. After the plan didn’t work out, Pant came up with hilarious reply saying “Yaar, mereko kya pata isse Hindi aati hai (Man, I didn’t knew that he knew Hindi).”
