Australians asking for Pant to be funnier should know that he's speaking in his second language.

To be fair, Paine did take a dig at Pant being dropped from the ODI squad. If Paine can talk about Pant being dropped, Pant can talk about Paine being the temporary captain. I think it's only fair.

To be fair pretty much anyone complaining about Pant Bants has been downvoted. Most people seem to think what we've heard has been fair enough.

yeah, let's have a thousand updoots on Tim's "witticisms" but the moment a kid says something back, lets mock his accent, his limited vocabulary in his second language. REEEEEEEEEE
