Pant, alongside Shubman Gill, resumed India\u2019s innings at 81\/3 and soon powered India past the 400-run mark. As the stump mic caught, Pant humorously suggested to Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto, &#8220;one fielder here&#8221; while pointing towards mid-wicket. To everyone\u2019s surprise, Shanto obliged, moving the fielder as per Pant\u2019s advice.<\/p>\n<p>Pant resumed his innings cautiously, starting at 12* (13). At the other end, Shubman Gill was in full flow, showcasing his exceptional stroke play. Gill brought up his half-century in style, smashing back-to-back sixes off Mehidy Hasan Miraz. Pant, meanwhile, continued his steady progress, finding boundaries sporadically and moving to 36 by the drinks break.<\/p>\n<p>After both batters reached their respective half-centuries, they shifted gears, launching a calculated assault on the Bangladesh bowlers. Their partnership flourished, with Pant and Gill building a crucial 100-run stand, leaving Bangladesh under significant pressure. Pant had a lucky escape when Najmul Hossain Shanto dropped him on 71 off Shakib Al Hasan\u2019s bowling.<\/p>\n<p>By lunch, Pant was unbeaten on 86*, Gill on 82*, and India had reached 205\/3, leading by 432 runs. The pair extended their partnership to 138 runs by lunchtime, firmly placing India in the driver\u2019s seat and leaving Bangladesh struggling to contain the duo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0On Day 3 of the first Test at MA Chidambaram Stadium, India\u2019s star wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant provided fans with a memorable moment when he was hilariously seen helping Bangladesh set their field while batting.
