Caption: Rishabh Pant is coming back to Delhi Capitals side after a year-long drought from cricket
Rishabh Pant's remarkable recovery from his near-fatal 2022 accident brings significant hope for his return to the Indian Premier League. In a major development, Pant recently participated in a warm-up game in Alur, demonstrating encouraging signs of progress.
Sources within the BCCI and the Delhi Capitals suggest that Pant could lead the team in IPL 2024. He'll focus solely on batting, with Delhi appointing a designated wicketkeeper.
Reports on Pant's mobility are highly positive, with sources stating he can run and bat freely. His ongoing rehabilitation at the NCA in Bengaluru and recent treatment in London (facilitated by the BCCI) have been crucial in his journey.
While Pant's IPL participation depends on NCA clearance, there's significant optimism. Delhi Capitals are keen on his leadership skills, even with modified duties. During Pant's absence, David Warner led the franchise.
IPL 2024's scheduling awaits the Election Commission's announcement of general election dates. The BCCI tentatively plans a March 22/23 start and a May 26 finale.
Rishabh Pant's potential return is a thrilling, heartwarming development for cricket fans worldwide. His inspiring recovery fuels anticipation for the IPL 2024 season.
