Watch: Rishabh Pant seen bowling in India practice ahead of second Test against Bangladesh

The BCCI, on the eve of the match, teased Pant the spinner as he could be seen rolling his arms over in the nets to Shubman Gill.

As Team India gears up for Bangladesh in the second Test match of their two-match Test series, the team’s spirits are high after a great 280-run win at MA Chidambaram Cricket Stadium in Chennai. Ravichandran Ashwin’s all-round performance has earned him the Player of the Match award, and the focus shifts for the Kanpur Test match, where the Bangla Tigers will be looking to thwart India to level up the series by 1-1.

Watch: Wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant was seen bowling spin to star batter Shubman Gill ahead of Kanpur Test

However, in a lighthearted moment during the team’s training session in Kanpur, wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant was seen bowling spin to star batter Shubman Gill in a video shared by the Indian Cricket Board, just one day before the second Test match slated to commence on September 27 at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur.

KL Rahul, in a humorous exchange, asked Pant if he had bowled in the recently concluded DPL 2024, Rishabh, tune Delhi Premier League mein bhi bowling kari thi na? (You recently bowled in the DPL, right?), to which the 26-year-old cricketer said  ‘Oh yes, they needed one runs. I said I might as well bowl).

However, Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant displayed some great skills as they both hammered a century in the second innings of the first Test match.
