India wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant has on Monday urged the people to support Delhi Police and adhere to the guidelines of the government. The southpaw has also asked people to stay at home and follow social distancing.
“A small mistake, either a missed catch or a missed stumping, changes the direction of the match. In the same way, our one small mistake can be the difference between victory and defeat in the country’s fight against coronavirus,” Pant said in a video posted by Delhi Police on Twitter.
