Tim Paine’s wife Bonnie credits Rishabh Pant for her instant increase in followers on Instagram

The hilarious banter between Australian captain Tim Paine and Indian wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant during the third Test match in Melbourne led to Pant babysitting Paine’s kids.

A photo of Rishabh Pant along with Paine’s kids was shared by Tim Paine’s wife Bonnie which caught the attention of the entire cricket universe.

In the Melbourne Test, the Australian skipper tried to sledge Pant by asking him to play for the Hobart Hurricanes in the BBL because of MS Dhoni’s return to the team. The 34-year-old further stated that Pant could enjoy a longer vacation in Australia and can babysit his kids when he and his wife would go and watch a movie.

Bonnie’s Instagram fan-following

Before Bonnie Paine had shared a photo featuring Rishabh Pant, she had around 5,000 followers on Instagram. But, after Bonnie’s recent Instagram story went viral, her number of Instagram followers have increased very rapidly.
