Pant’s hilarious response to goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh is winning hearts

Indian cricket team wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant and Indian football team goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu shared a Twitter banter on Sunday, which went viral instantly. Both the players are from the northern side of India and are quite popular among sports fans. Both the young players are world beaters and have taken giant strides and done well for India in their respective sport.

The incident started when Sandhu posted a tweet and tagged Rishabh in it posing a question. The goalkeeper posted a picture of himself waiting for the ball to come his way. In the picture, it could be seen that Sandhu’s hair was flying away. He questioned Pant if that happens when he is behind the stumps and the ball is coming on his way.

“Bhai @RishabhPant17 does your hair also go crazy like this when you are behind the wickets and you see the ball coming?”, Gurpreet Singh Sandhu asked Pant on Twitter.

To this, Pant replied by saying that he always makes sure that he is wearing a cap or a helmet while wicketkeeping to ensure that his hair doesn’t fly and go crazy.
