Rishabh Pant is expected to make his comeback in the 2024 season of the IPL.
Rishabh Pant return is one of several things that fans are looking forward to in the 2024 season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The star wicketkeeper batter, who is captain of the the Delhi Capitals in the IPL, last made a competitive appearance in December 2022 when India played their second Test in Bangladesh.
He met with a car accident later in the month and missed the entirety of 2023 as he recovered from his injuries. Former England captain Nasser Hussain has stated that the whole world has been awaiting his return.
"That was such a serious accident. The whole world held its breath and it has been a slow recovery,” Hussain is quoted as saying by the ICC. Hussain said that he had seen former Australia captain and commentator Ricky Ponting, who is head coach of DC, keeping a track on Pant.
"You follow on social media, on my phone and the initial first walking steps to then scenes in the gym and then scenes of him playing a bit of cricket, scenes of him with Ricky (Ponting). I travelled with Ricky in the summer in the Ashes, and Ricky was texting him ‘how's the progress coming along’, and he is a box office cricketer," said Hussain.
