Rishabh Pant has been playing as a full-time wicketkeeper for the team after former Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni retired from international cricket. Pant often does something behind the wicket, which is why fans start comparing him to Dhoni. In the T20 World Cup tournament being played in the UAE and Oman, Pant took on Namibia on Monday, which fans began to remember Dhoni. Pant stood in the Dhoni movement on the way to Namibia here, to which fans responded strongly. The video was shared by the International Cricket Council on his Instagram account.

This happened in the ninth hour of the Namibian innings, when the first ball of Rahul Chahar, Namibian striker Lofty Eaton, took two runs in the back row. There was no player here, so Pant, standing behind the wicket, ran the ball. He grabbed the ball and tossed it directly into the trunks. The exception is that he threw this throw without looking at the wicket. Here Rohit Sharma stood near the stumps to catch the ball. It turns out that fans started saying that Pant reminded Dhoni. Let us tell you – Dhoni is often famous for this game and often does well in releasing the striker.
