During New Zealand's first innings, Rishabh Pant was seen giving advice to Washington Sundar from behind the stumps. Like he was saying to Washington, 'Woshy, throw the bone a little further and out.' Sundar followed Pant's advice and pitched the ball a little forward. But Ijaz hit a four on his ball. So this trick of Pant did not work and his plan flopped. After this Pant said, 'Man, how do I know if he knows Hindi.'
