Rishabh Pant's response to Bonnie Paine's Instagram photo

Indian wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant has been the talk of the town for the last week as he has gained a lot of fans on and off the field.

First, he was the centre of attraction after he was sledged by Australian skipper Tim Paine and he gave it back to the Australian gloveman the next day.

He was asked to babysit his kids by Paine so that he can take his wife for a movie. A few days back, Tim Paine's wife Bonnie posted a photo on Instagram with a pic of Pant holding their kids and had a caption "Best babysitter" and tagged Rishabh in it. He followed it up with an unbeaten 159 in the fourth Test match.

When he was asked about Bonnie's Instagram story, Pant said, "Everyone's family were really nice. We met most of the people during the function at the prime minister's house. It was lovely meeting them. I don't think I have to change myself for something like that. The only thing is they put the photo on Instagram and it went viral".
