Test cricket and Rishabh Pant’s batting. For the last few years, this combination has entertained fans fiercely in world cricket. This star wicketkeeper batsman of Team India has scored fierce runs in Test cricket with his explosive batting. His peculiar shots, like falling on the pitch while playing a scoop or sweep from one hand, have made everyone a fan. But now not only batting, but also with his celebrations, the vice-captain of Team India has looted the Mahfil. In the Leeds Test, Pant showed such acrobatics by scoring a century against England that Virender Sehwag called it the celebration of Yoga Day.

In this first match of the Test series started in Leeds on Friday 20 June, the batsmen of Team India showed their glory. On the first day, captain Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal had scored excellent centuries, while Rishabh Pant touched this place on the second day. On the first day, Pant, who is batting in a very careful style, showed his same attitude on the second day, due to which often the dressing rooms and fans of both teams keep watching their beats. Pant hit the spinner and hit sixes, while many times he was seen falling on the pitch in the process of putting slog shots.

During the first session of the second day, the opportunity came again when Pant completed his century. The star batsman went ahead with the ball of spinner Shoaib Bashir and made a long shot with ‘Ek Hath’. He was playing on 99 runs at that time. As soon as the ball fell among the fans, Rishabh Pant took off his helmet and put it on the ground with the bat. Then immediately Pant showed acrobatics, which surprised everyone. If Pant’s century was fun, then his celebration was even more entertaining.

This was just the second time when Pant celebrated a century in this style. Earlier, when he scored a century in IPL 2025, it was celebrated for the first time in this way. This celebration of Pant also caught the attention of veterans like Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag. Along with praising Pant’s century, Tendulkar wrote, “Pant’s celebration is as entertaining as his batting. Very good Rishabh.”

At the same time, Sehwag praised this celebration of Pant in his own style. He connected it to International Yoga Day, which was celebrated on Saturday 21 June all over the world including India. Incidentally, on this day, Pant also scored a century and looted the Mahfil by showing this funny celebration.
