Xtra Time Web Desk: Team India’s dashing wicket keeper batsman Rishabh Pant and national football team goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu were involved in a fun banter on social media site Twitter on Sunday. Gurpreet, who is currently in the UAE with the rest of the Indian squad for their upcoming friendly against UAE on Monday, shared a picture of his 'crazy hair' while trying to block a shot in training.

The Indian goalkeeper tagged wicket-keeper Pant and asked him if his hair also goes 'crazy' while he is trying to catch a ball behind the stumps. The left-hander was quick to respond to Gurpreet and advised him to use a good hair gel to ensure his hair can take care of itself with cameras around.

"Bhai @RishabhPant17 does your hair also go crazy like this when you are behind the wickets and you see the ball coming?" - Gurpreet asked Pant in a tweet. 

"Bhai @GurpreetGK that’s why I wear a helmets or cap while keeping With cameras around everywhere, never underestimate the use of a good hair gel or wax before hitting the field," Pant was quick to respond.

Gurpreet will stand under the bars on Monday in the international friendly against UAE at the Sheikh Zabeel Stadium in Dubai. The Indian football team recently earned a 1-1 draw against Oman in the first international friendly on their trip to Dubai.
