During the first Duleep Trophy 2024-25 match between India A and India B, a lighthearted exchange between Rishabh Pant and Kuldeep Yadav highlighted the strong bond of camaraderie between the Delhi and Kanpur lads.
Rishabh Pant and Kuldeep Yadav’s oops chat caught on camera
The incident took place in the 41st over of India A’s second innings. Kuldeep was on strike when he hit a boundary off the fifth delivery from Sai Kishore. Following this, Pant, who was keeping the wickets, called the fielders in closer to prevent Kuldeep from taking a single.
Kuldeep responded by telling Pant that he would not attempt a run. In a humorous exchange, Pant playfully urged Kuldeep to take a single, saying, “Kha Maa kasam nahi lega?” which translates to a lighthearted challenge to Kuldeep to swear on his mother, adding a funny twist to the situation.
Here is the video:
