In the ongoing opening Test match of the series against New Zealand, India is now looking in a strong position with the help of the brilliant partnership of Sarfaraz Khan and Rishabh Pant. During their partnership as a senior player of the team, Rishabh Pant was suggesting Sarfarz Khan take singles and not to take risks. But he himself did the opposite of what he said to his batting partner. The voice of Rishabh Pant was caught on the stump mic, in which he was saying to Sarfaraz to play calm, and then he took the risk himself to hit big on Tim Southee.

Now team India is just 12 runs behind New Zealand, and surely they're going to get past that score very easily. In the partnership, Rishabh Pant was taking on the bowlers of the opposition, and Sarfaraz was a bit cold.
