Gill asks Pant to Calm Down
And as per their batting practice ritual, Rishabh Pant would often come and knock on his bat. But the Gill was worried, that the constant knocking of the willow can damage his own bat. This prompted Gill to ask an enthusiastic Rishabh Pant to calm down.
“I’m playing with a bat that I played against England. So my bat is quite old and Rishabh Pant was hitting my bat so hard. I was trying to save my bat, and if Pant didn’t middle the ball, he would say no, let’s do it again. I said bro, calm down,” said Shubman Gill at the press conference at end of Day 3.
Gill recounted that he was playing with the same bat that he used while playing against England earlier this year. And since by them the bat has become old, Gill was fearing that it doesn’t break. With Pant constantly knocking on his bat, Gill was prompted to ask his batting partner to calm down.
