Delhi Capitals’ Director of Cricket Sourav Ganguly informed about Rishabh Pant who was recently injured in a car accident. One of the toughest challenges for Sourav Ganguly ahead of the IPL is to replace Rishabh Pant. Who is not available despite undergoing surgery after being injured in a terrible accident. No decision has been taken yet on who will replace him in Delhi Capitals, but an announcement may be made soon.
Rishabh is going through a difficult phase after surgery
Ganguly said that I talked to him many times. He is clearly going through a tough time post injuries and surgeries. I am praying for his recovery. He will play for India again in a year or two. Whether Pant would like to see some time with the team during the IPL so that he can get fit, he said, “I don’t know.” We’ll need some more time to find out. The next camp will start before the IPL. IPL is just a month away.
Who will get a place in the team instead of Pant?
Ganguly said that the Delhi team has not yet announced the replacement of Rishabh Pant. It is yet to be decided who is better between young Abhishek Porel and veteran Sheldon Jackson. Australian David Warner is likely to be the captain and Axar Patel the vice-captain this season. A three-day camp was organized in Kolkata under the guidance of Ganguly, in which Prithvi Shaw, Ishant Sharma, Chetan Sakaria, Manish Pandey and other domestic players participated. He said that there is still one month left in the IPL. Considering the amount of cricket they play, it is difficult to bring all the players together. Four-five players are playing Irani Trophy. Sarfaraz’s finger is hurt. There is no fracture in his finger. So hopefully he will be fine by IPL.
