In an unforeseen twist of events, Rishabh Pant emerged during the intense training sessions of the Indian cricket squad as they brace themselves for the upcoming Asia Cup 2023 in Alur, Karnataka. After a hiatus due to a car accident in December 2022, Pant has been diligently working on his recovery at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) located in Bengaluru. He has been consistently sharing his progress on various social media platforms. Recently, he also took part in a practice match, a spectacle he disseminated widely. During this time, Pant was observed reconnecting with his fellow players and engaging in thoughtful conversations with the head coach, Rahul Dravid.
In an earlier video posted on the same day, Pant demonstrated his rehabilitation routine by engaging in cycling, a gesture that earned admiration from cricket enthusiasts, including the renowned Australian star, David Warner.
Amidst the preparations, concerns emerged regarding KL Rahul’s fitness for the Asia Cup 2023. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar revealed his minor ailment, casting a shadow of doubt. While Rahul’s inclusion in the continental tournament marked a noteworthy comeback after his battles with injuries, apprehensions lingered. However, there was a positive development for cricket enthusiasts as Rahul actively participated in wicket-keeping practice, seeking guidance from the team captain, Rohit Sharma, during the ongoing training camp in Alur, Karnataka.
