Indian veteran Navjot Singh Sidhu is currently performing his commentating duties in the ongoing 5-match Test series between India and England. On Day 3 of the 1st Test at Headingley, the former Indian cricketer mocked Pakistan's legendary player Javed Miandad over his on-field sledging.
Navjot Sindhu, who is known for his unique style of commentating, is currently performing his Hindi commentary duties in the 5-match Test series between India and England. On Day 3 of the Headingley Test, while discussing Rishabh Pant's chatter, which occasionally gets caught on stump mic, Sidhu recalls the time when Pakistani cricketer Javed Miandad used to sledge opponents on the field. While imitating Miandad, Sidhu mocked the former Pakistani cricketer with a lisp voice.
During the ongoing Headingley Test, Rishabh Pant can repeatedly be heard behind the stumps mic, advising the bowler about their next delivery.
Mic check. One two Pant.
