Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant is ready to return to the field. Good news has come for the fans of Delhi Capitals. Pant has also received a fitness certificate from the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru before the IPL 2024 season. India's star batsman Rishabh Pant is away from the cricket field since a car accident in December 2022. Fans will be able to see him playing in the upcoming season of IPL starting from March 22.
According to India Today report, he has received the certificate this week and now he will be seen captaining Delhi Capitals. Currently, Pant is busy shooting for the promotional campaign of the tournament. However, he will soon join the Delhi Capitals camp in Vizag.
However, there is doubt about what role Rishabh Pant will be seen in for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2024. The franchise has made him the captain for the upcoming season but the franchise is in a dilemma regarding this. According to media reports, the franchise will not put any pressure on Rishabh Pant keeping in mind his international career.
Earlier, Sourav Ganguly had said in an interview to TOI, “Let Rishabh Pant be declared fit on March 5, then we will talk about captaincy backup.” We are taking a cautious approach with him because he has a very long career ahead of him. We don't want to put too much pressure on him in excitement. We will see how Pant reacts. He will join the camp after getting approval from NCA. We will take it match by match. We can not predict the future.''
Rishabh Pant has been very active for the last few months. He has shared many videos of himself doing exercises on social media. He is spending a lot of time in the gym and has been seen playing on the field many times.
