Whenever Rishabh Pant has kept wickets for India, he hasn't been at his best and because of this, he has been criticized by Indian fans. Today, he showed that truly is a keeper. The Twitterati were quick to pull out their phones and started showering praises along with some expected Mankad shots.

People just can't let it go, can they?

Pant being a terrible example for the youngsters out there. Should have warned Watson once before attempting to stump him...

WATTO WAS ON LINE. IN SPIRIT OF CRICKET, BATSMEN SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN GIVEN OUT. PANT YOU TERRORIST! /s

That is uncalled from Delhi Capitals! How could they?

All round disgraceful behavior by the Delhi team.

Mishra, for bowling the ball out of Watson’s reach, Pant for stumping without so much as a warning, Iyer for not recalling Watson.

What shall we tell the kids??

The prince that was promised!

Audacity of Pant is something else. Perhaps the only Indian player that comes close is Dhoni in his youth.

What a turn around! From the ODI series to this!

May not have survived for long in the middle, but definitely has done a good job with keeping.

But that was a bad comparison! Pant has a long way to reach Dhoni's level!

I know it's unfair to compare young Pant with the experienced Dhoni, but the quality gap seems too wide. At this point in time, Pant seems AT LEAST 1 SECOND slower than Dhoni in the process of 'Collecting the ball from the fielder/bowler & knocking the bails down'. THAT'S HUGE!

Brilliant way to silence haters!
