Pant’s Heated Moment In Test Cricket 

1. During India’s tour of Australia in 2018-19, Pant was involved in a heated exchange with Australian captain Tim Paine. Paine was trying to distract Pant by commenting on his poor batting form and potential selection for India’s upcoming ODI series. However, Pant responded by sledging Paine back, saying he was just a temporary captain and that he (Pant) would make him drop catches.
2. In a match against England in 2018, Pant was caught on the stump mic sledging the English batsman Adil Rashid. He was heard saying, “Not everyone is Pujara here, lads. They might come hard at you.” The comment was perceived as disrespectful towards the Indian Test specialist Cheteshwar Pujara.
3. During an IPL match in 2019, Pant was caught on camera sledging Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma. He said, “Everyone knows where your off-stump is, Rohit,” implying that Sharma was susceptible to getting caught behind the wicket.
4. In a test match against Australia in 2021, Pant was again caught on the stump mic sledging Australian batsman Matthew Wade. He said, “Come on, Wadey. Show me something. Come on, mate. Come on, and you’re not going to score any runs.”

Overall, Pant is known for his aggressive and chirpy style of play, and his sledging incidents have attracted both praise and criticism from fans and experts.
