IPL 2024: Pant Has Shown Patience, Positivity And Tolerance, He Will Do Wonders For Himself, Country, Says Shikhar Dhawan
Pant has been declared fit to play in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday and is all set to represent Delhi Capitals in the season. The left-handed wicketkeeper-batter has not played competitive cricket ever since surviving a near-fatal car crash on December 30, 2022, while on the way to his hometown Roorkee. In Pant’s long absence, Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson and Jitesh Sharma have emerged as wicketkeeping options in the shortest format for India.
At the 'Star Nahi Far' event organised by Star Sports for IPL 2024, Dhawan reflected on Pant's remarkable recovery from a severe injury. Dhawan expressed his joy at witnessing Pant's return to action and highlighted the resilience and determination demonstrated by the young cricketer.
