India’s Rishabh Pant set to resume cricket career at IPL 2024

Pant has been cleared to play competitive cricket for the first time since he sustained multiple injuries in a car crash on December 30, 2022.

India’s wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant is fit to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL) starting this month after being seriously hurt in a car crash in 2022, the country’s cricket board has said.

After an extensive 14-month rehab and recovery process, Pant “has now been declared fit as a wicket-keeper batter” for the Twenty20 tournament, the Board of Control for Cricket in India said in a statement posted on X.
