On the occasion of India's Independence Day, Team India's wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant shared a video on his official social media handle. The caption of the video read, "Happy Independence Day, India. Some moments stay with you forever and winning for India is at the top of the list. Proud to be Indian. #RP17".
The video was shot by Pant during Team India's Champions Trophy 2025 triumph. At the end of the video, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma was seen asking Pant, "Kya retirement lelu?" (Should I announce my retirement?). Further, Rohit jokingly said, "Bhai, har baar jeetenge toh mein thodi retirement leta rahunga" (Brother, I can't keep retiring every time we win).
Happy Independence Day, India. 🇮🇳
