Wasim Jaffer returned with his best performance in a joking manner with the Indian wicketkeepers. Jafar quoted a picture posted by India head coach Ravi Shastri and made KL Rahul gesture to capture Agastya, son of Hardik Pandya. Jaffer joked that Indian wicketkeepers are always “reliable babysitters” in the context of a ban between wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant and Australia Test captain Tim Paine during India’s 2018-19 tour of Australia. Pant was asked by the stump microphone to save his children from the Indian ‘keeper’ while sledding Pine.
