Twitter reacts to Rishabh ‘Australian’ Pant falsely claiming Pucovski’s catch despite clearly grassing it

01/07/2021

Rishabh Pant had a horror start to Day 1 after putting down a sitter off the bowling of Ashwin, but just when it looked like he’d made amends for it overs later, replays found the youngster guilty. Pant channeled his inner Aussie by claiming a grounded catch, for which he got chastised on Twitter.

We miss you MS

Rishabh Pant should be grateful that we're not playing in India. People would have started chanting "Dhoni.. Dhoni" by now.#INDvsAUSTest
