Sunil Gavaskar said that wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant's valuable half-century were "impactful runs" in helping his team gain a sizeable lead over Australia.

In the previous match, a clip featuring Gavaskar had gone viral where he was angry at Rishabh Pant's dismissal. The cricket legend showed his displeasure by shouting 'stupid, stupid, stupid' in the mic.

The Border-Gavaskar Trophy is currently down to the last and final Test which is being played at the SCG and though the Indian top-order batters failed to meet expectations once again, India star wicketkeeper-batter played one of the most important and entertaining knocks in the series where he smashed the Australian bowlers all around the park.
