There were many hilarious trolls and comments about the same. However, the best reaction came from Paine’s wife Bonnie when the two teams paid the visit to the Prime Minister’s residence in Sydney before the start of the fourth Test. The skipper’s wife posed for a picture with the Indian wicketkeeper. Also, the kids were with her and Pant was kind enough to hold one of them in his shoulders. After that, Bonnie put up an Instagram story with the same picture and wrote: ‘Best babysitter?’.
