return-of-rishabh-pant-s-practice-on-track-for-ipl-2024

The BCCI secretary Jay Shah gave an update on Rishabh Pant, who is set to make his much-awaited comeback in the IPL. Pant has been out of action since a horrific car accident in December 2022.

 

"He is batting well, he is keeping well. We will declare him fit very soon. If he can play in the T20 World Cup for us, that will be a big thing for us. He is a big asset for us.

 

"If he can keep, he can play the World Cup. Let's see how he does in the IPL," said Shah.

 

The accident had left Pant with a severe right knee injury that required ligament reconstruction surgery besides a fractured wrist and ankle. But he has done well to bounce back.

 

His IPL franchise Delhi Capitals' head coach Ricky Ponting has already stated that he would participate in the league.
