Pant the 'best babysitter'
Tim Paine's wife has labelled Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant the “best babysitter” in a light-hearted viral social media post that shows there is no animosity between the Australian skipper and his opposition wicketkeeper. The two glovemen, Paine and Pant, have exchanged some humorous banter throughout the series and perhaps the best example was when the Australian skipper tried to lure India's keeper to sign with the Hobart Hurricanes. “Big MS [Dhoni] is back in the one-day squad too, we might get him [Pant] down to the Hurricanes... we need a batter," Paine was heard saying over the stump microphone during the Boxing Day Test. “Fancy that, Pantsy? Extend your little Aussie holiday. Beautiful town Hobart too. I'll get you a nice apartment on the waterfront. “[I'll] have him over for dinner. Can you babysit? I'll take the wife to the movies one night and you'll look after the kids?"
