'How about buying a cricket ground?' - Irfan Pathan has a perfect suggestion for Rishabh Pant

India’s young wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant lately has been on the receiving end of a plethora of praises and appreciation from all over the world. Pant was the wrecker-in-chief for India as they managed to breach the Gabba Fortress and scripted history by winning the prestigious Border Gavaskar Trophy against Australia by 2-1.

Rishabh emerged as the highest run-getter for India in the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2020-21 despite playing only three Test matches. In 5 innings, the young rookie has 274 runs to his name at an average of 68.50 and strike rate of 69.89. He scored two fifties during the three Test games, with 97 being his highest score.

Apart from entertaining the cricket fans with his batting and wicketkeeping on the cricket field, Rishabh Pant is also quite active on his social media handles and often posts stuff that makes him the talk of the town. Taking to his official Twitter handle on Thursday, January 28, Pant revealed that after an amazing performance in Australia, his family wants him to buy a new house.

The 23-year-old further asked his social media family whether Gurgaon (Gurugram) would be an ideal place to relocate or not. The batsman was also open to suggestions as he urged his fans to give him some options for buying a new adobe.

“Jabse Australia se aaya hoon gharwale peeche pade hain ki naya ghar le lo ab. Gurgaon sahi rahega? Aur koi option hai toh batao,” Rishabh Pant’s tweet read.

Irfan Pathan has a unique suggestion for Rishabh Pant

Pant’s tweet created an uproar on Twitter as many people came up with different and unique suggestions regarding where the batsman can buy a new house. Among all the suggestions, one tweet that managed to grab the attention of people was made by the former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan.

Irfan suggested Pant to do something big and different by buying a cricket ground instead of a house. “How about buying a cricket ground ??,” Pathan asked Pant on the microblogging site.

On the professional front, Rishabh Pant is all set to join the Indian team in Chennai to serve a mandatory quarantine period before locking horns against England for a four-match Test series, starting from February 5 at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Pant has been named as the first-choice wicketkeeper along with Wriddhiman Saha in the 18-member squad for the first two Tests against England.
