Rishabh Pant's aggressive and entertaining batting style has not only captivated fans but also drawn witty remarks from fellow cricketers. Following Pant's impressive performance in the recent Test match between India and England, former Indian wicket-keeper batsman Dinesh Karthik playfully suggested that Pant might eventually "take our jobs," referring to commentators.

Karthik's comment came after Pant's lively presence at the crease was caught by the stump microphones. Pant was constantly communicating, motivating himself, and even playfully berating himself after attempting his trademark unorthodox shots. This constant chatter and his insightful understanding of the game led Karthik to joke that Pant was already doing the job of a commentator.

"Viru paaji (Virender Sehwag) used to sing a lot while batting, but Pant is a commentator in himself. I think he will take our jobs eventually, he is doing our job," Karthik said on Cricbuzz. He further added, "He is having fun when he is batting, he has a method as well. At times he is justifying what he is doing to his batting partner, because at times, just like us, the partner is thinking, 'Arre bhai, yeh kya kar raha hai' (Brother, what are you doing?). He's like trying to explain that all is well, I know what I am doing."

Pant's recent performance has been nothing short of spectacular. He scored centuries in both innings of the Test match, reaffirming his aggressive batting style, and solidifying his place as a key player for the Indian team.

Beyond the humor, Karthik's remark highlights Pant's deep understanding of the game and his ability to articulate his thoughts clearly. This skill, combined with his natural charisma, makes him a strong candidate for a future career in commentary. While Pant's primary focus remains on his playing career, it's clear that he possesses the qualities to excel in other areas of cricket as well.

It remains to be seen if Pant will eventually transition into a commentary role. For now, cricket fans can enjoy his explosive batting and entertaining presence on the field. However, it's certainly amusing to imagine a future where Pant is behind the microphone, providing his unique insights and witty observations to the game. Whether he takes anyone's job remains to be seen but his passion for the game will surely open doors for him in the future.
