Stupid, Stupid, Stupid… Gavaskar scolded this Indian player in the live match, this mistake was not tolerated.
Gavaskar taught Pant a lesson.
Rishabh Pant could only score 28 runs in 37 balls in the first innings of the Melbourne Test. During this, he hit 3 fours. He got caught by Nathan Lyon while trying to hit a big shot. A poor shot selection was seen from his side. Actually, Rishabh Pant tried to play a pick up ramp shot over fine leg in the over of fast bowler Scott Boland, which he always likes to play. But this time he missed. After this, he once again played a ramp shot near the off stump on the next ball, but the ball took the edge of his bat and went towards deep third man and he was out.
Seeing this mistake of Rishabh Pant, Sunil Gavaskar lashed out at him in the live match. During commentary, Sunil Gavaskar said, 'Stupid, stupid, stupid! You have two fielders and you still go to play such a shot. You missed the previous shot and look where you got caught. This is losing your wicket. You cannot say that this is your natural game. I am sorry. This is not your natural game. This is a stupid thing. This is weakening your team badly. You also have to understand the situation.'
