Rishabh Pant Comment on Rohit Sharma: Former cricketer Gautam Gambhir and the audience burst into laughter when Rishabh Pant jokingly took Rohit Sharma’s name on The Great Indian Kapil Show. During a fun segment, Pant was asked, “Who is the one ‘Jethani’ in the team who acts bossy and orders others around?” Pant quickly responded with a grin, “Rohit bhai is like that. Rohit bhai comes on strong.” The cheeky remark made everyone laugh.

Gautam Gambhir, who was sitting beside him, added humour to the moment by saying, “Ab toh retire ho gaya. Haan haan, lo le lo naam ab.” (Now that he’s retired, go ahead and take his name!), which made even players like Yuzvendra Chahal and Abhishek Sharma laugh loudly.
Rohit Sharma recently announced his retirement from Test cricket on May 7, which surprised many fans. He had earlier spoken about his excitement to tour England in an interview with Michael Clarke, but poor form with the bat and captaincy questions during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy led to this decision.

After stepping away from red-ball cricket, Rohit is currently enjoying a vacation in Italy with his wife Ritika Sajdeh, daughter Samaira, and newborn son Ahaan. He’s been sharing pictures of beautiful locations and historic places on social media, taking a well-deserved break from the game.
What’s Next for Rohit Sharma?
Rohit was expected to return in August for India’s ODI tour of Bangladesh. However, the series is likely to be cancelled due to political tensions between the two countries. If no new matches are scheduled, Rohit might return to international cricket in October.
Meanwhile, India is playing the second Test at Edgbaston, where Shubman Gill is leading the team, and Pant is vice-captain. Gill scored a brilliant 269 runs, helping India take the upper hand. England bounced back with centuries from Jamie Smith and Harry Brook, but Mohammed Siraj stole the show with a six-wicket haul, giving India a 180-run lead.
Pant’s fun moment on the show gave fans a glimpse of the bond and humour that still lives strong within the Indian dressing room, even after Rohit’s retirement.
