Rishabh Pant childhood coach reveals an amazing story about the Team India star
Tarak Sinha, Rishabh Pant’s childhood coach explained that the cricketer once came to his house at 3:30 AM to apologize after a variation of opinion at a practice session. According to the Sinha statement, the wicketkeeper-batsman was having a wakeful night as he knew he had outplayed his coach.
Sinha speaks about Cricket Next in an interview:
“Once I got upset with him during one of the net sessions at my club Sonnet which is in South Delhi. He couldn’t sleep for the whole night and knocked on my door around 3:30 am! I live in Vaishali (National Capital Region) and which is almost an hour’s drive where he was staying in Delhi,” Sinha told Cricket Next.
“I was like at this time? Why? He said that he wanted to apologize because he could never see me being upset. That was touching as well as disturbing since he had to make that journey post-midnight. In fact, my family was so upset with me that I was harsh on the kid,” he added.
