Rishabh Pant made headlines during India vs Pakistan match at the Asia Cup 2022 despite not being part of the playing XI. While many questioned his exclusion from the playing eleven, Pant was trending for a non-cricketing reason as well. The 24-year-old was trending along with Bollywood actress Urvashi Rautela as the latter was spotted in the stands during the match between India and Pakistan.
The pictures of Rautela watching the game from the stands went viral on social media in no time. This also garnered a lot of reactions from internet users. Most of the reactions were funny considering how things transpired between Pant and Rautela lately. While a few pointed out the coincidence of Pant missing out from the playing eleven and the actress in attendance, a few remembered the actress’ latest post about cricket.

For those unversed, Pant and Rautela had recently gotten into an indirect social media banter after the actress’ interview went viral where she had claimed that a ‘Mr. RP’ had come to meet her when she was in New Delhi. While Pant had said that it’s unbelievable to see what someone can do for fame, Rautela had urged Pant to focus on cricket.
