The two teams will clash here Sunday as they begin their campaign in the season 12 of the popular T20 tournament.

“Yes, More did work with Pant, but it was just for a brief period,” sources in the know said.

More has worked with 21-year-old Pant, who has represented India in all the three formats - Test, ODI and T20I - in the past too.

A journalist also posted a picture of More working with Pant on his Twitter handle.
