In a short video, Pant is seen praising MS Dhoni as a wicket-keeper and batsman. He also acknowledges the fact that he has picked up wicket-keeping skills from MS Dhoni and he would have never donned the gloves without the help of the former Indian wicket-keeper. But, towards the end, he also challenges MS Dhoni that he will be blazing guns this IPL 2019.

The video of the ad was shared on Pant’s social media. “Mahi Bhai, Sab aap se seekha hai, toh aap ke saamne game toh dikhana banta hai! 😉#VIVOIPL mein milengey - Kya kehte ho, @msdhoni @StarSportsIndia @IPL,” read the caption of the video.

In the IPL 11, Pant went on to be the second highest scorer of the tournament as he made 684 runs. Kane Williamson went on to be the highest run-getter of the IPL 2018.
