    Pant was driving home to meet his mom and celebrate the New Year 2023 with his family. However, he suffered a devastating accident in which his car was completely destroyed, but he was saved by some of the locals around.

    Rishabh Pant has recently Tweeted that his surgery for a right knee ligament injury went and he hopes to return to cricket pretty soon. The doctors are claiming that Rishabh Pant will need 4-6 months to completely recover from the effects of the injuries that he sustained in the car crash.

    Saurav Ganguly, the mentor of Delhi Capitals in IPL 2023, has stated that Rishabh Pant is going to miss the entirety of IPL and Delhi Capitals is soon going to announce its captain for this season. Ricky Ponting, who serves as the head coach of the Delhi Capitals, has said that it will be hard to fill the void left by Rishabh Pant in DC this year.

    When asked what he thinks of Rishabh Pant, the former Aussie captain replied, “I absolutely love the bloke.”

    Ponting also said, “If he is actually not physically fit enough to play, we’d still love to have him around. He’s the sort of cultural leader around the group, being the captain, and that attitude and infectious smile and laugh he has is what we all love so much about him. If he’s actually able to travel and be around the team, then I want him sitting beside me in the dugout every day of the week. I’ll certainly be making sure, come the middle of March when we get together in Delhi and start our camps and stuff, if he’s able to be there, then I want him around the whole time.”

    He then further added, “I told him that on the phone the last couple of days. It was a horrifying time, a really scary time for everybody, let alone him. Anyone that knows him loves him – he’s a really infectious young guy that has the world at his feet still. So we will keep our fingers crossed and hope that he can get back to playing sooner rather than later.”
