Sunil Gavaskar, the former India captain, humorously recreated his viral ‘Stupid, stupid, stupid’ moment on live television while discussing Lucknow Super Giants’ batting approach in the ongoing IPL 2025 season. Gavaskar joked that he would have asked Rishabh Pant if their aggressive style of play was due to injuries, imagining Pant responding with the same ‘stupid’ remarks. Moving on, Gavaskar praised the aggressive nature of batters like Nicholas Pooran, Mitchell Marsh, and Pant, highlighting their ability to put runs on the board without sharp-edge bowlers. He emphasized the need for a cushion of runs to support the team’s bowlers on off days. The ‘stupid, stupid, stupid’ moment originated during the Border-Gavaskar series when Pant was caught at third man after a reckless shot, prompting Gavaskar’s critical commentary. Pant later playfully recreated the moment in a brand advertisement on Instagram. Gavaskar’s lighthearted dig at himself added entertainment to the pre-match analysis, showcasing his wit and charm on live TV.
