He has scored a total of 151 runs in 13 matches played so far, his team also dropped out of the league stage.

Pant has reacted strongly to this comment. Rishabh Pant wrote on his X account, “I understand that fake news promotes the content more, but we should not make everything around it. Less sensible and reliable news will help more than the agenda.

I undress fake news more traction to content but let’s not buy everything Everything Around it. Little Sense and Credible News will help more raather making fake news with ageda. Thanks have a good day. Let’s be responsible and sensible what we put out on social media
