Team India keeper-batter Rishabh Pant and paceman Jasprit Bumrah shared a hilarious banter during the Yuvraj Singh’s charity gala on Tuesday in London. With Pant coming on the stage to present an award to Bumrah, the latter said he didn't know the 27-year-old was that eager to give the award. In response, Pant hilariously said 'I'm humble, not like you'.

The moment occurred as Gaurav Kapoor invited Pant to the stage and asked the audience to give a round of applause to the Uttarakhand-born cricketer. After receiving the award, Bumrah was asked to share a few words and said, 'I didn't know he was that eager to give the award.'

In response, Pant hilariously snatched the mic and said:

"I'm humble, not like you."

The event in London was of YouWeCan Foundation, which works in raising cancer awareness. Along with the entire Indian squad, the likes of Virat Kohli, Ravi Shastri, Kevin Pietersen, Chris Gayle and Darren Gough were also present.

"I'm happy he's back" - Rishabh Pant looking forward to facing Jofra Archer

When asked by an English reporter about his contest with the returning Jofra Archer, Pant responded that he wouldn't be doing anything different against the right-arm speedster.

"Personally, whenever I step on the field, I enjoy my cricket and try to give my 100 percent. It's not particularly about any individual. Yes, it's going to be a good contest, because he's also coming after a long break. But yes, I'm happy he's back."

Archer, who replaced Josh Tongue in England's playing XI, will play his first Test since 2021.
