The young Indian wicket-keeper batsman, Rishabh Pant may have been organized and disciplined on the field in the Sydney Test but his hotel room was completely opposite to it as found put by the veteran Indian opener, Rohit Sharma and he put it on social media. Rohit posted a picture of Pant’s on his Instagram story in which the 23-year-old wicket-keeper batsman is captured with teammate Shubman Gill.
In the picture apart from Gill, there were belongings strewn on the floor, the couch, the chairs, and mostly everywhere. Tagging Pant in the picture, Rohit wrote: “Legendary @rishabpant’s room.” The “gross” GIF laid bare Rohit’s opinion on the messy state of affairs.

Hanuma Vihari and Ravichandran Ashwin batted for the whole of the last session on Day 5 and also towards the end of the second session despite having some injury concerns.
