While the nation bent, stretched, and breathed in unison to celebrate the 11th International Day of Yoga, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) found a unique way to join the festivities by sharing a hilarious collage of their star cricketer Rishabh Pant .
Posted across their social media platforms, the image showcased Pant in exaggerated yoga poses .

The post instantly went viral. Known for his cheeky charm and unpredictable flair, Pant has become a fan-favourite both on and off the field, and LSG's light-hearted tribute fit his personality perfectly.
The yoga-themed post stood in contrast to the more traditional messages of the day.
Union Minister of Youth Affairs and Sports Mansukh Mandaviya marked the occasion by encouraging citizens to make yoga a daily habit. “Yoga is our culture, and it should be part of everyday life,” he said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi , addressing a grand yoga gathering on the Visakhapatnam coastline, echoed a more global sentiment. “Let this be the day when inner peace becomes a global policy,” Modi urged.
He emphasised yoga’s role as a unifying force and a tool for collective well-being, encouraging nations to embrace it beyond cultural boundaries.
Across India, millions participated in yoga events, from school children to armed forces, emphasising the theme of unity and wellness. The celebrations marked 11 years since the United Nations officially recognized June 21 as International Yoga Day .
Back on the cricket pitch, Pant also made headlines with a gutsy unbeaten 65 not out on Day 1 of India’s Test match at Headingley, where skipper Shubman Gill (127 not out) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (101) gave India a commanding position against England.
But for fans online, it was Pant’s "yoga avatar" that stole the show.
