Star Indian wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant enjoyed his time off the cricket field by baking pizza in a lighthearted video. The left-hander suffered a foot injury while batting during the first innings
of the fourth Test against England in Manchester last month. Due to this, Pant was advised to rest for six weeks and also missed the final Test match at the Oval. Now, a few days after the end of the Test series in England, Pant shared a video on his social media where he baked pizza with the guidance of a professional chef.
In a light-hearted video, Rishabh Pant was seen in a mischievous mood where he baked pizza along with some hilarious commentary in between. “I’m looking like a chef only. Today I'm gonna show you how to make pizza. Bear with me. I think I'm gonna make vegetarian Pizza. I love vegetarian, but I don’t know how to put the truffle man. I think if I make more Pizzas then I will be sorted. It’s very hot in here, boys. That's the only thing I can do with a broken foot right now, baking pizzas. My mother must be thinking I’ve never cooked anything at home but I’m making pizzas here,” Pant was quoted as saying in a video.
