Rishabh Pant, India’s wicketkeeper-batsman, is expected to captain the Delhi Capitals (DC) in the 2018 Indian Premier League (IPL). According to ESPNcricinfo, the Delhi-based club anticipates that the 26-year-old would be fully healthy before the start of the 17th season of the cash-rich domestic T20 tournament. Pant went through the paces at the Delhi Capitals’ recent camp in Kolkata ahead of the next edition of the event, under the careful eyes of the coaching team, which included Ricky Ponting, Sourav Ganguly, and Pravin Amre.
According to media sources, the wicketkeeper-batter arrived to the camp to discuss “player retention and release” ahead of the forthcoming IPL 2024 auction on December 19 in Dubai.

Pant has been out of competitive cricket for several months due to catastrophic injuries received in a car accident.
In his recovery, the Indian wicketkeeper-batsman has shown remarkable persistence and commitment. His admirers have been tracking his development to full fitness, and he has also kept them updated via social media sites.
Pant survived a horrible vehicle collision on the Delhi-Dehradun route but suffered grave injuries.
After receiving basic treatment in Dehradun, he was evacuated to Mumbai for more advanced and specialized care.
Pant did not play in the finals of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, the World Test Championship (WTC), or the ODI World Cup 2023.
However, it is believed that he will soon be able to return to full fitness and may possibly be selected for India’s side for the ICC T20 World Cup next year.
