Twitter reacts to Rishabh Pant channeling inner MS Dhoni to plot Matthew Wade dismissal
Rishabh Pant had a mixed day behind the stumps, where he was guilty of letting too many easy balls pass and held on to some tough ones too. But the moment he owned the stage was when he asked R Ashwin to keep the ball close to the body to trap Wade, a ploy that worked right on the next ball.
Rishabh Pant does an MSD!
Translation: Keep it inside(stumps), he will try to hit!

Pant knew!!
Just a delivery before Matthew Wade’s dismissal, Rishabh Pant could be heard in the stump mic saying, “Andar hi rakhna, ye maarega” which roughly translates to ‘keep it at the stumps, he will hit’. #Cricket #RishabhPant #IndiavsAustralia #AUSvsIND https://t.co/2iE5qEGLvH
